- Cheapy Chinese carbide turning tools - are they any good? Watch to find out!
I’m chuffed to bits to say this video is sponsored by Banggood who provided me with some carbide turning tools last month to test out and make a video on.
I already buy loads of stuff from them so was very happy to be approached to do a video on some of their products and I’m hoping I can do a few more if they let me.

Ordering tomorrow!! Great video.
Thank you very much for this informative video and honest review , will be looking at Banggood's other tools as well
Glad it was helpful!
Many thanks. I found your comments useful and will follow your ideas as a new person to wood turning.
Glad to help :D
An honest review, refreshing! Thank you, sir. Your presentation style is well suited to your friendly demeanor. Now, to check out those tools..... :)
Thank you kindly!
Well, I went and bought 3 of these chisels, I am really impressed with both the product and delivery time. I have only "tested" them so far, (I am totally new to turning) and still have a million things to know and learn. These chisels will make the journey so much easier.
Glad you like them - I'm also really impressed for the money :)
Man, you rock. Subscribing now. Great video!
Awesome, thank you!
Very interesting. In the market for some carbide chisels but don't want to break the bank. Thanks. 👍
I totally agree with all you say,if enough turner’s bought these tools maybe easy wood tools and others would look again at there prices.
I have been wondering about the possible different qualities. This was a perfect vid for me. And it isn't just the difficulty in learning the non carbide tools, it is also the added cost for reasonable sharpening equipment. It can run another $200+ for the sharpening stuff. Then you have to learn that too. This way, you can turn and then maybe add the occasional classic tool into the mix.
Glad it helped! :)
I've just been shopping for carbide tools to start my turning experience. This was a timely video since I was looking longingly at the Easy Wood Tools. Maybe now I can afford a nicer chuck instead of investing all my money in premium carbide tools. Thank you for this video.
Glad it was helpful! I do have nothing but praise for the Easy Wood Tools but that price - oof! :)
Bang tidy! The stud detector was a great idea. 😀
Mr Geoffrey Smith thanks :). It almost didn’t work because it kept on detecting me 😎
@@TheWoodgineer A fine chunk of 2x4 😂🤣
Thank you , I have just purchased a set and I think these tools . Easy Tools just make your money leave your pocket easier and very fast.
Yup can’t deny the easy wood tools are good but their not THAT much better than tools a fraction of the price :)
Very informative video.
Glad it was helpful! :D
Love the specs!
Thanks - they help me see through time, protect my eyes and also read a basic script without looking liking I'm reading too much! (oh and they look cool)
Great video, You explain things very clearly. Chinese products can be very good, just look at their space programme. Thank you I will check these out.
do you have a link for compatible tips? it's hard to find information on which replacements would work. Thanks! love the channel!!
Sorry for late reply - I've used these with great success! amzn.to/3Dg7VR2 (affiliate link)
Great video, Thank You!
Steve Combs thanks :)
Really good information here, I’ve been looking at getting a used lathe but I’ve been put off by the price of the Easy Wood tools.
Those shades are the business too! Cheers.
Richard Martin thanks Richard! You should totally get a cheap lathe, some amazing stuff to be made and don’t get me wrong those easy wood tools are awesome but cheap carbides are great for starting out!
Great review. I brought a set of cheap carbides like you say it’s the tips that do the work. just can’t justify buying Eastwood tools to expensive
SK Krafts thanks! And yes indeed, and don’t get me wrong they are nice but 4x the price!
Thanks for this review because I brought the exact set from banggood for $40 Au each and was going to put the $40 easy wood cutter in them because the mid size easy wood tools are over $200 here in Aus
That’s awesome! And wow that’s a lot of money for some handles!!!!
Interesting, might get myself some!
You should, they aint bad! :D
Interesting, I was thinking the Easy wood tool would go deeper into the handle but its about the same
Thanks for posting
Thanks for watching!
Excellent!
I'm going to be getting my first lathe soon. I have never used one before, never turned anything. I already know which lathe I'm going to get but what tools should I get to go with it?
Carbides are brilliant for starting out - get a square profile for roughing, round for smoothing and diamond for detail. Those 3 tools you can make almost anything :)
Do yourself a favour though and check out some beginner tutorials before starting. Mike Waldt does some very good videos.
Honestly, I turn with traditional tools, but sharpening aspect is important to me, so after a beginner's set I got with premium stay sharp steels. But carbide? why not if I am doing a bow just use a square carbide boy? Or for hollowing use a little round guy? And from what I gather when the thing gets dull, just run it through the lapping stones, which I have from hand tool sharpening station. Seems like I do needs me some of these
Yup you can sharpen the carbides easily (not so much the negative rake though)
do all the Banggood tips fit on the handles?
More specifically are they an universal size?
I think so, certainly all the ones I’ve ordered.
Will Head makes some great tools
John Letham yup he sure does, and some really nice blanks :)
On the topic of getting EZwood tips and changing them over, I’m pretty sure they use a different/unique tip that won’t fit on other tools.
BrainFizz meh I tried, they fit perfectly other than one thing; the grub screw. I’m sure one of the larger bits would fit though if the hole were enlarged and retapped.
I bought various carbide cutters to make my own turning tools. What I did find on my searches for cutters, is that they come not only in different shapes, but also the same shapes in different sizes. For example the square cutter comes 10mm 16mm , I gather the smaller cutters suit pen makers and the larger sizes for those doing larger work. The cutters come with their own torque screws, 3mm, 4mm, etc. or can be bought in packets of 10 screws. I have bought various sizes at different prices for comparison, however, as with all my metal lathes, milling machine carbide tooling/inserts etc. quality varies between manufacturers. Industry use the name brands, but for what work I do, the ‘imports’ work just fine. They are sharpenable as are those used for wood, by using either fine diamond flat lapping plates or various diamond impregnated cup wheels, all at very affordable prices from ‘imports’, a Google search soon find many sources and wide price ranges. The carbide tools certainly make it a low cost entry into wood turning, when compared to a set of decent quality HSS tools, plus all the sharpening equipment/tools etc.
I just ordered a set of carbide turning knives. You should be getting your commission soon?
Thanks! I don't think I get much any more but its really good to know you've gone for them - I think they are great for the money! :)
Thank you very much.
You’re welcome hope it was helpful :)
I have watched 2 different videos for banggood turning tools. both reviewers did not provide any part numbers. I tried looking for the items described but to no avail.
Check the link in the video description that’ll bring you straight to them :)

Got it!!! tyvm
Hi ,,have you got a link to these carbide chisels as the link is not working ty
The Little Wood Shed hiya just tested the link and it should be working. Just in case it’s here m.banggood.com/Lathe-Wood-Turning-Tool-Carbide-Insert-Cutter-Tools-Square-Shank-with-Wood-Handle-Woodworking-Tool-p-1376548.html?ID=510594&cur_warehouse=CN&p=6P282238440459201908&custlinkid=704850
@@TheWoodgineer Thanks for getting back to me ,,,will these take any replacement carbide tips ? Im new to wood turning and still learning .
I Want to use it to knock off the excess on inlay rings,not much pressure there! should last forever! I was shocked to see the other prices!
Yup some stuff is crazy money!
as to the comparing handles, the easy has much more wood in the handle, and around the tang of the tool where it matters more, but I thinjk the china ones will do the job for sure. as others have said,, not all the tips are interchangeable
Yup a few of the sizes are different. I've switched to all easy wood tools since I did this video but I still like the chinese ones and would recommend to somebody not wanting to pay easy wood tools prices.
Thanks for giving a good analysis of value versus cost. I own the cheap carbides and have found they perfom quite well. I can buy LOTS of replacement tips for the difference in price.
Thanks for watching - yup those carbides are cheap enough to use and toss although you can do some resharpening to extend their life a little.
Looked it up, looks like they're actually about $45 US
Sorry for the late reply! Use the code too if you still havn't got them, price seems to fluctuate too.
Hola dónde puedo comprar ese juego de gubias. Colombia y cuanto cuesta gracias
I ordered a set of 5 from banggood. they sent me a bare round shaft no handle.....hard time getting them to send me the original order.
Sorry to hear that bud, they are usually pretty good sorting stuff out :(

Posted a negative comment yesterday, this morning it looks like they may have made good! eleted previous comment.
6:45 Wow, you are so cool! I love all the effort you put into your content! Thumbs Up 👍
Thanks! :)
I wabuy some please tell me how Wayne From Montana nt to
There's a link in the description
Is there an Android version?
Simon Harman androids are banned from my workshop ;) you know this!
I cant deal with those specs!
Cool aren't they?
Blah blab blab, yadda yadda yadda, and I wasn't paid for this review
I know right! These things are amazing! 🥰
I won't buy any of these cheap Chinese wooden handle tools any more. I've had the handles on several snap, even shatter when hitting even a slight catch. A lot of these are downright dangerous
Thanks for watching! :)
Buy American, British, Canadian, but not Chinese.
But I want quality tools for a good price! :D
take off the stupid glasses, very distracting, takes away from the content of the lecture.
The wife’s already told me...many many times 😂
Nothing but wood scrapers,no finish with them,sandpaper by the yards,rubbish.
Thanks for watching ;)
I find them fairly handy, prefer my traditional tools but they are useful at times. Leave a decent finish and easy to sharpen
After 1 minute into your very informational video I just couldn't watch your glasses any longer. Do you have a problem with your sight? I don't mean to be rude, but TAKE OFF THE GLASSES.
You're just jealous that I look really cool! 😎(seriously though, I've ditched them for future videos)
That's exactly what it was. Where can I get a pair like that? I built a tool like the one you did. Thanks.
