The Rougher is excellent for creating tenons, turning blanks from square to round and removing material quickly. It is available in a wide range of sizes. The Pro version, the largest, is 28.5" long, Full Size at 24.5", Mid-size at 21", Mini at 16", Easy Start at 12.5" and the Micro at 9.25". The Roughers can use both regular and negative rake cutters as well as the square and radiused cutters. The Mid, Mini and Easy Start tools accommodate the new Beading Cutters. It didn't take long for bowl turners to realize that the radiused cutter produces an almost flawless surface on the outside of a bowl. Practically eliminating the need for sanding!
