Excellent demonstration and really appreciated your explanation of how you you were using your skew. I really need to master the sharpening and use of my skew! I bought a second hand one purely for this purpose before splashing out on a good quality tool.
Thanks Jay, sharpening a skew needs practice, but when it’s finely honed, it is a joy to use. Feel for the wire edge and you will know it’s razor sharp by the sound!
Hi Tom. Between 1800 and 2000. Because it is a small diameter, you should run the rpm higher. Of course large diameter work requires lower rpm. Surface speed.
