Tools for Turners

[@gtm624]

Wow those rulers are impressive.

[@TLFWorks]

Thanks for the video.. I thought the throat was defined as follows: "The throat is the distance from the blade to the vertical frame section of the body of the saw. This distance determines the width of cut that can be completed on the band saw." I think you described the resaw ability of the saw. I love your stuff!

This video was very helpful. I’m just getting back into Woodturning after being away from it for about thirty years. While some things are the same there are a lot more tools available than there were back then.

May the Force of the Lathe be with you, Master Yoder. 😊 Love learning from you.

[@johnklein4558]

Thanks Tim!

[@jeremyedwards5950]

Tim, You just helped me prove to my wife why I have so many tools. Thanks for sharing. ✌️, Jeremy

[@turningonadime6477]

Tim, didn’t know you made tools. They look great and very useful. 👍🏻

[@archer9006]

Oh I will say I loved the tools you make and sell, and plan on getting a few of them for my shop.

[@7676wahoo]

Outstanding video. I'm gonna fashion my shop after yours.

[@malbin23]

Thanks for sharing Tim!

[@glencrandall8334]

Tim,Excellent shop tour. Great explanations of what tools you use and why they are needed. And congratulations to Brian on his very professional camera work. Who does the editing?

[@joelahnstein2281]

Loved the video. really interested in how you have rearranged the workshop. I use two mobile tool chests like the one you show to store most of my turning tools and accessories. cheers.

[@stevetrujillo8150]

Tim What do you have to collect dust in such a tight space? Thanks enjoy the videos.

[@gschnaper]

Awesome! I like the tools you made! I'm gonna go and check em out....

[@leksey7870]

A well-equipped workshop!

[@retmachinist]

I'm with you with a small shop Tim ..... mine's a little bit bigger than yours every inches used stops me from putting on weight I'll be too crowded......... I think the Yellow Jacket want to learn how to use a lathe I got bumblebees that watch me..... I think if we both had twice the amount of space be twice as crowded... Very good video Tim.... I enjoyed watching it you like Thompson tools ? I have used a few of them I ended up make my own.... Went to Home Depot bought shovel handles made out of Ash or hickory make fantastic handles ..... custom length works out great keep up the good videos

[@rmcBloody]

Thanks a lot I needed something just like this to start my workshop

[@tobiasblock2694]

Nice video Tim. I have all the things that you have in your shop. But i decided to use also a dust/ shavings extractor and a tablesaw. The next time, I will buy a new lathe. The american beauty is too expensive for my use. So I will buy the axminster trade at 1628 vs. Will see how it works.

[@carolriley569]

Love all the tools!

[@cedaroakfarm8596]

Do you have any type of dust removal or vacuum system? I just got into resin casting with wood turning, totally ruined my organization plan. Good video for a shop review. well done. Craig

[@SeeWhyMan]

I'm interested in the laser light you have on the hollowing tool. Do you sell that separately? I have one but I have gone through about 10 laser lights because they can't hold up to the constant vibration. They are not easy to find and end up costing a fortune once you do find one that will work... Just ready to change to something better. Thanks!

[@jeremyd956]

When will you be back at woodcraft, are can we just come by and visit you at your shop??

[@EddieSchirmer]

so... i want to be able to turn lengths up to 50-60 inches long... would i end up just using extensions for the tailstock? even if i went for a fairly beginner entry level lathe under $300 for the lathe itself? apart from doing basic turning i want to use the lathe for hand sanding and polishing of wood, so that i can make single piece or segmented walking sticks out of glued together woods of different types, and be able to turn bits for attaching hardware for handles and points... got any advice where to start out?

[@themissouriwoodwaltzer7827]

Small shop, reminds me of the saying “size matters” but you prove that (tool, equipment) placement counts. :) I have a 40‘x40‘ woodroom in my 40‘x80‘ shop and still run out of room. :(

[@ScrapwoodCity]

It is indeed an American beauty! Awesome tools! By the way what's with those false teeth on your bench? Are they going out of round?

[@stuffalecmakes]

@Keanu Lucca Ur a loser bro

[@czellner5894]

Tim, do you have/use a table saw in you shop? I've never seen one but maybe you've never shown it. They are handy too but can have a big footprint.

[@tomasarguinzoni9022]

Great video thank you for sharing 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🍻

[@Barbarra63297]

I would love to see you make an old fashioned nut bowl with the center column to hold the nutcracker and the picks. Oh, and with the bark left on. Hint, hint 😉

[@coreywelch]

I want to buy some of those Thompson Lathe tools, but struggling with which ones I should get. As of right now I turn small objects like chess pieces. When I started 5 years ago I bought the cheap tools that sort of worked. Now I want to invest in better ones. I uses a Delta Mini/midi Lathe. What would you suggest?

[@davidgagnon1961]

do you have links to the accessories you showed?

[@jackocallaghan4340]

Hey Tim I am 13 years old and have been turning for a year. I really enjoy watching your videos and was wondering if it would be worth my while purchasing a tormec t-4. I do not have a job or a lot of money so I am not sure wether or not I should make this investment. If you can give me some advice that would be great but if not that's fine.

[@willemkossen]

Jack O Callaghan i just got one. Its a lot of money. But i guess i never knew how dull my tools actually used to be until i got them on the tormek. Very helpful. Bur mind you, you need to buy all those jigs separately too for it to be really usable for turning tools. They have a woodturners collection which is a bit cheaper, but its still a lot. I cant decide for you, bur i really like my tormek.

[@peterhendriks1972]

very helpfull…. thank you

[@westtexan2263]

Tim where can find that double sided worm screw? I have looked online for it and haven’t found one.

[@garymccoy2888]

West Texan it comes with the Easy Wood Tools Chuck.

[@richboden2903]

I enjoyed the video. However, one important item you failed to mention is how you handle all the dust in the shop...a dust extractor is very important.

[@JoeBrinkman66]

I can't ever let my wife see this video. If she thought I could be productive without all the tools I currently have, I would never be able to buy another tool.

[@mythyc9604]

Hey Tim. Those swing trays for the DP are really inexpensive and it looks like you need another... lol

[@SpyridonTheWonderWkr]

Are you an engineer? What do you do for work?

[@MusicFurler]

That wasp/hornet thought it was heading for the sun but then realised it was Tim's head.

[@beeggeeb4810]

You should move your grinder, so it's behind the lathe. You'll be more likely to resharpen you tool when needed. Now you have to WALK ALL the way ACROSS your shop to resharpen.

[@patkeefe5834]

Dust collection/control?

[@themissouriwoodwaltzer7827]

Tim has a small lean to outside of the shop where the air compressor and dust collection is stored.

[@HarryHound1]

Hi Tim Where can we buy your rulers etc? Great video Michael (UK)

[@ZoeSummers1701A]

Go to his website - you can also get some great dvd's. You'll have to pay postage and import fees unfortunately as he doesn't have a UK / EU distributor (yet). wtwtim.com

[@archer9006]

Umm what was with the molds of teeth on the cabinet when you were talking about space @4:33

[@chrislehr07]

I wondered the same. Can totally see Tim as a dentist though. :)

[@garrybrpwine3073]

No coffee maker ?

[@cmac1100]

4:38 are those dental molds?

[@gabrielc6252]

he may be a dentist :D

[@guitarpunk200]

There is a bug in your shop at 0:56

[@gabrielc6252]

0:55 danger danger ... wasp O_O

[@robohippy]

That ain't a bald spot, it is a solar panel......

[@rcache4]

My shop is 30' x 50' - now if I could get other people's stuff out of there. "Hey, Do you mind is I store some things in your shop for a while?" Somethings have been there for 5 years now... (annoyed face emotion goes here)

[@heyandy889]

"I didn't need that face mask anyway" :D
