  1. I have not been turning that long, not much experience of years as such I kind of make up stuff as I go. I have been frustrated when turning a mortise, tenon, sacrificial piece etc trying to get the "right bite" for the bowl or vase I am ruining at the moment . Taking measurements of 3 sets of chuck jaws, I made a chart and compared to measurements of the work to see if I have the right "bite" on the work. To me this was a PITA and for some reason counterintuitive . Out of the frustration came the "GO / NO GO" gauges shown here. the picture here shows 3 gauges I made, ( one for each set of chuck jaws) that I can now simply hold up the correct gauge to a mortise or tenon I am trying to create and instantly know if I have a good fit for the chuck. For me this greatly simplifies the process and instantly shows how much "bite" I can expect without ever taking an actual measurement. calabrese55

Turning Time With Easy Wood Tools- Easy Wood Tools introduce the negative rake cutter to overcome the chipping caused by traditional HSS tools when turning acrylics.
