How to Get Better on a Wood Lathe

Barry Gross uses a repeatable spindle cut to show how better tool control develops. Watch how he:

  • Anchors the tool, finds the bevel and begins the cut
  • Uses the sound, surface and feel to tell when a cut is working
  • Changes the tool angle to see what happens

It’s a simple exercise you can carry into your next project.
