Andrew Potocnik looks at Torquata's affordable Tungsten Carbide Turning Tools as an option to his preference for standard, time-honoured gouges and scrapers. Watch the video to find out the benefits of these tools and how they compliment your woodturning.
About the Tools
The carbide tip on these tools are massive advantage to your woodturning. They make for easy starting and remove the need to sharpen. They stay sharp for longer. When you need to you can replace the tip.
The square shank means that you can hold the tool dead flat on the tool rest greatly improving your safety and accuracy.
This kit includes a boxed set of all 4 Torquata Midi Carbide Turning Tools.
Detailer - Diamond Tip
Finisher - Round Tip
Rougher - Square Tip
Rougher - Square Tip (Radiused)
Detailers are designed for small intricate work. The diamond shaped tip allows for getting into those tight places.
The round cutter on the finisher is designed for use inside curves and for finish turning.
The square cutter of the rougher is designed for rough shaping and outside curves. There is also an option of a radiused cutter. Radiused square cutters bulge out slightly on the flat sides, this makes them more effective at smoothing cuts.

Easy to sharpen these carbide cutters, use a very fine diamond lap, (cheap imports work well) put the cutter face down flat on the diamond lap, use WD40 as a lube to clear the plate clean and place a finger tip flat down on the cutter and just make figure eight strokes until the WD40 solution turns black. No need to press hard, just a few minutes and the cutter is like new. Can be resharpened many times as very little material needs to be removed due to the design of the cutters. The carbide tool shapes have a very wide range of uses-very versatile.
Well done mate!
Many thanks. Greetings from Ireland
Welcome!
Am learning carbide tools pretty cool
Just retired as a manual machinist .. there are some similar concepts haven't used a wood lathe since the 8th grade .. love all the videos out there very helpful 😊
Rock on!

The detailing tip can be used for way more than just to put lines in as shown , I use it to hollow out bowls with ease.
Best description of use for different tips I have yet seen. Thanks.
You're welcome Joshua. Thanks for your kind words.
I am new to turning. Yesterday a friend who has been turning bowls for many years, invited me to learn some basics and get started on a bowl from a 12 inch diameter blank. I guess it was a trial for me to decide if I wanted to get my own equipment. Sharpening is an issue for me, as in the work area I have; I dont want to make sparks that might cause issues with other equipment that have combustible fuel engines, that share my work space. I could include with my turning system, something like a tormek sharpening system, thereby adding more initial cost, or I could start with replaceable carbide tip tools. Thank you for your video!
Thanks for your kind comments Drake. Perhaps have a look on our channel for Tracey Malady's woodturning videos. She champions the EasyWood carbide tools on our channel and passes on a lot of helpful information about the techniques and methods of using these very effective tools - that you never have to sharpen! Perhaps try this video for starters:

We wish you well on your new hobby! Well done!
Carbide is king, engineering shops have been using them for 30 years so why not Woodworking 🍻👍
An excellent point, Dirk. Thank you!
You have to sand more with carbide
because you cant really customize them, and we all have preferences.
The high speed steel is actually sharper than carbide thus the extra sanding.Having said that, tool life is extended greatly with the carbide so you are trading one for the other. I recommend carbide for anyone who has issue with tool sharpening.
@@mandiemurphy333 Agreed, I used high speed steel & carbide whilst milling H13a & S101A & found carbide the best option as sharpening is time consuming & yet another process, great to hear your perspective👍👍👍
Thanks mate! Where can I get a jacket/smock like you have in your vid?
Here ya go, Kevin! www.timbecon.com.au/full-woodturners-jacket
Bummer, I tried to order 1 and some other goodies but it won’t except my address in Minnesota USA. 😪
You cant turn the square cutter head to point forwards and make v grooves , it wont seat in the recess
Thanks for the elaboration on the differences, mate. 👍🏽
Good on ya Bill. Do you do much woodturning yourself?
@@timbeconaus
I must admit, I do have a lathe that I scored a few years ago, had nowhere to actually use it, built an addition to the shed, (not yet completed) and still have not used it. Have never used one at this point, so when I do it certainly will be interesting.🤔
I do have my eye on a few things you stock, but not yet a warranted nor priority purchase. 😉
Love your uploads, guys and gals, keep em coming! 👍🏽
Thanks - looking to buy a set like this as had my regular non carbide set for 7 years and just what I needed to see and hear.

Really good description of the tools, Thanks. will be ordering the midi set when you have some in. Was thinking of getting 'Easy Wood Tools' but these are much the same only less costly. Cheers from NZ.
Just got this set delivered today.
I am still researching to determine if I will buy wood turning machinery and tools. It seems that Easy Wood Tools gave me a reason to get started with my own equipment. But now I wonder if EWTools are a starting point for new turners who eventually replace the carbide tipped tools for conventional tools that need shaping and sharpening on a grinding wheel.
"V grooves", sounded a bit like "the grooves", which was confusing for a minute, without a demonstration.
Is the tools Australian made by any chance ?🤔
What are the numbers for on the square tip? The 1 2 3?
The number make it easy to keep track of the edges that you have worn and the new sharp unused side...
Where I can sell carbide tool scrab for good price. Please help me. I have 15kg of scrab
No sound 🤷♀️
One should be well above center on outside turning and well below center on inside turning to avoid the dreadful catch!!!! 😱
Great salesman for the carbide.
Could've spoken a few words for safe lathe speed though.
‘Saves all that time to sharpen’? Takes me about 20s to adjust my pro-edge and sharpen a gouge, while the cutting works twice as fast easily, and leaves a much better finish, so no endless sanding after
But add on the time it takes to learn how to sharpen..
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👌👍🤝
You need to make an adjustment for the information you giving. The Negative Rake carbide is a traditional cutter. Think of one's pocket knife. The edge of the negative rake carbide actually cuts just like one's knife. If one is scraping with a negative rake carbide, they are too low.
