I read this in Barry Gross new book;
"using a parting tool in the bevel-cutting mode."

What is a bevel-cutting mode?

Thank you

Bill, I'm not sure, but I think it has something to do with this:

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes




Come to think of it, that was Depeche Mode, I don't know anything by Bevel-Cutting Mode. [}:)];)

Am I alone in thinking that Cav might benefit from another "time-out?"

From his name, I deduct he was created in 52.
He might be getting the supposed residueles of the late 60's experimentation that the gov warned us about. Sometimes perfectly sane, and then sometimes....

Have a great day

I agree with Ron. To do this, you usually engage the bevel first (cutting edge is higher and not cutting yet) and slowly pull the handle back and up very slightly until the edge cuts. Note that with the toolrest, the tool is like a fulcrum (see-saw) as you pull and raise the handle, the cutting tip is lowered. If you continue to raise and pull the handle, he cut will slowly change to scrapping mode.

Another note, (if you don't move/adjust your toolrest) you will usually cut higher in the turning with the bevel cutting mode w/ a parting tool.

That's right Dario,
When doing this your parting tool is acting like a skew in peeling mode.

And from Cav's bio his patients (or some of them anyway) are accustomed to dishing out their own type of "torture."

For those types of 'customers', Cav ... PLEASE use dirty and very dull bits on them and let them have a taste, er, dose of their own medicine. [:0]
