Beginners Guide to Woodturning Tools 

I'm not even done watching this video yet and this is by far the most excellent video explaining each tools' usage that I've seen yet. I'm brand new to turning so this is exactly what I needed--thanks!

Why can't everything be this good. Loved the video, explained so clearly and the video'ing is just spot on. Well done and Thank you!!!

wow, I'm bummed to only be finding this now! perfectly splendid editing and lessons! it's already sped up on the parts that need it. very concise info throughout. I've been turning for a few years off and on and never seen it broken down so properly. thank you!

Lathe Tools 101 - This was an awesome and concise video. All my answers in 11 minutes.Thank you for the great and informative video!

Thank you for taking your time and explaining well. Having your camera at that angle, sure helped and seeing what you were saying at the same time. I’m hoping to get a lathe and I think I’ve almost got my husband talked into it.🤞🤞

What a fantastic video. Am interested in getting into Woodturning but a little perplexed by all the elements. This was packed with information, very clear, easy to understand and makes me think I might be able to have a crack at it.

Solid tutorial from a good teacher - thank you

Great video my wife brought me a Axminster craft AC305WL woodturning lathe now looking for wood turning chisels. I found this video very helpful thank you

Thanks, 74 yrs old and just getting into wood turning. Bought an old craftsman metal lathe and converting into wood. Haven't turned wood since 6th grade. My new hobby, I hope lol. Appreciate your teaching.

I haven’t used a lathe since I was at school back in the 1960s, but I’ve recently purchased a very cheap “hobby” lathe from Lidl and I want to start making small stuff, mostly just for fun . . . I like making sawdust! This is a great guide to what chisels I need and how to start using them. Thank you for an excellent, interesting and informative guide to get me started.

Great job! You are quick to get to the point but explain things brilliantly.

This is a perfect demonstration for a beginner like me! So glad I came across this video. Thanks!

As a beginner I found this the best and most informative video, looking forward to watching more of collins videos 👍

Amazingly informative. Thank you!

Absolutely brilliant sir straight to the point ,specially the explanation on the tools and their use, thank you.👍

Turned my first cylinder today. Thank you for the instruction.

Thanks. I just can't get past the feeling that I am a beginner. Been a little over a year since power and a cleaned up bench. Hoping to get back out and play with my lathe again. Thank you very much!

So impressed with Axminster can’t wait to start my new hobby/ pastime 👍🏻

Very informative. I just started turning and to know how and when to use the right gouges was just what I needed.

Nice presentation 👏 Lots of tips . Thanks 😊

I've just bought a lathe. This is the site I needed. Thank you so much.

Best and useful video i have ever seen. Ty.

I like making skews and chisels for the lathe from vintage firmer chisels.

Fantastic, these videos are a real boost, I am new to Woodturning and thought I would have to wait until COVID had gone before I could buy a lathe and get on a training course, now I can buy my lathe and train on line. Thanks Axminster…

Just exactly what I need as a novice…

Impeccable detail, analysis, and information. Thank you lol. I went into this blind and definitely had my tools mixed up based on labeling

I already know it's not going to be nearly as easy as you make it seem but I'm looking forward to following along once I have my lathe setup. Great video!

This was so clearly and expertly done. Appreciate it!

as a total beginner I found this very informative, well done and thank you and because of this have now subscribed

I’ve been woodworking for over 45 years and turning for the last 20 (?). So, I’m experienced and reasonably skilled. For any newcomers, I can vouch that this is an excellent video with all that you need to know to get good results quickly. If only, it had been around when I started. I’ve downsized my lathe now to an Axminster machine. Looks very much like the one on the video - perhaps a little smaller. Having had a large, much more expensive lathe, I can say that the Axminster does not represent a step down in quality. I have no connection with Axminster other than as a customer of many years.

brilliant tutorial

Superb video ! Explains what each tool can be used for, I now know what to buy.

Thanks for putting this vid up ,it really helps as a newbie to this hobby .

Thanks, I'm just beginning and any tips or help is much appreciated.

Very good demo simple and straight forward

Fantastic video.....so clear and very well explained.....thank you

Been fighting with the skew mine were straight resharpened with an arc works better for me thank you for great video

Great Job! I purchased a lath a few years ago and finally got around to using it. While purchasing other used tools I acquired about a dozen old lath tools. I have ordered the sharpening equipment for the tools and now I have an understanding of what each tool does. Great job on your video.

I teach woods in a High School and I use this video to help the student understand the difference in the tools. Great job.

As always so exlanatory, this is really helping my woodturning effort, very grateful, many thanks

Brilliant video. I understand a lot more now. Ill be putting it into practice tomorrow. Thank you

Hello Sir. Thankyou for sparing us some of your valuable time and showing us great footage, of the things we'll need to know, going forward. You have great skills, thankyou.

Thank's for the demo

Excellent video! Explained very well without superfluous chatter.

Muy buen vídeo, desde Teruel-España

Fabulous video. Learned so much.

Great video thanks

Thanks very much - this is exactly what I was looking for! I'm not into wood turning but I've bought a set of these chisels and made a tool rest for my metal lathe so I can make small pieces like tool handles. Your explanations of which tool to choose and how to use it are excellent! Learned more in 11 minutes than in watching hours of other videos. Bookmarked for future reference! You've encouraged me subscribe and explore wood turning in more detail. I've too many hobbies as is, so I don't know if I should thank you for that ;) Cheers!

Thanks. Great example of how to use each of the tools.

Great video, simple clear instructions. Tha ks

Got a very expensive s hand wood lathe …not used one since woodwork classes 50 years ago. Your video…very clear….thank you will be watching more of your videos …very instructive. Now looking for a corse to go on.

great video

Nice class for the beginners.

Nice video, thanks

Brilliant easy to follow explanation, currently waiting for my aw370

Good instructional video .For beginner a bit on mountindpg blanks,centre finding,punching etc.would be good .When using roughing gouge having your left thumb clear of the tool will result in loosing your nail or your thumb .Take care

Thank you so much

Sick music, I left this Channel in 10 seconds

Very good video. Question; I have a set of Record chisels that doesn't include a parting tool. Why would this be the case?

That was worth the time👍

Thanks

Awesome

Brilliant Video! You make it look so easy - Thank you so much for sharing

Have a nice vid . Good job god bls u sir . From brmm

Brilliant video on how to use each individual chisel. I hope you dont mind me asking what type of lathe would you recommend to buy ,thanks

Fantastic tutorial 👍👍👍

Bonjours l'exposé est magnifique dommage qu'il ne soient pas en Français ou sous-titrer, Merci MR.

This movie is verry help full my question how is the best speed lathe for beginners?

I want to thank you all. X

Do you hold classes?

Just about to buy my first 15cm bench lathe do I need smaller bench tools for this lathe? Thank you.

I want to buy this wood turning machine tell me the price please and also it's tools

I’m in school right now and can’t turn up the volume but this video is still great without it

👍👍👍

So the spindle gouge & the skew chisel are the only tools in this set where the tool rest is above center?

I want this tool

Is there any woodturning courses for a total beginner in Cheshire please?

Not yet got my lathe so please excuse the question. Does it matter which direction the lathe is turning the spindle? I notice you've got it running 'into' the tools, ie anti-clock, rather than 'away' from them.
