P & N Gouges

[Bernie Weishapl]

Well got my 3/8" and 1/2" traditional grind bowl gouges in today. So I went and got them mounted in the handles. I think they look pretty good. Anyway I hope they do the job. Thanks.

Bernie,

I have a P&N detail gouge. Mine is mounted in a Keltron handle. I've had it for at least a year and am very happy with it. I'm sure yours will give you good service.

Those look great Bernie! I have the 1/2" and use it in my Kelton handle, I really like the aggressive cut I can take with it.

Have fun.

You did a good job on those Bernie! Nice gloat!

[John Hart]

I think about the tools I've made and then look at this. Sheesh! The bar hath been raised. Very nice Bernie!:)

I really like my 13mm bowl gouge, with the long grind on it.

I can easily take a cut heavy enough to stall the motor on my C-man lathe :D

The handles were only another $5, so I got them with, the wood is super nice and solid.

I'm pleased!

Thanks for the nice comments. This was a fun project. I did find out why oak was a bear to turn though. Thanks to the skew it made it quite a bit easier.

Bernie.........I find oak a little tougher to turn....but not bad......the fiber is such that it doesn't seem to take detail too well........Nice job on those handles!

Bernie,

As I already told you..... Most excellent work my friend!

Your skills continue to outpace the vortex itself :cool:

Great job and can't wait to see what comes out of your shop next :)

[Pete Jordan]

Another Great Job Bernie!

Keep it up!

Looks great! And them tools in them handles work pretty well. I use mine every chance I can.

[Bernie Weishapl]

Thanks everyone. I used one just to toy with it. Boy can you ride the bevel on them things around the corners inside bowls. They work pretty good for what I am wanting to do with them.
