1/2 Bowl Gouge - Bottom Feeder, Bowl Gouges

All 1/2" Bowl Gouge - Bottom Feeder flutes are individually inspected and hand polished to remove all machine marks. This extra step assures the sharpest cutting edge possible. They are shipped sharp. The Bottom Feeder grind is used on the inside of bowls especialy for finish cuts, I also use it on the outside of bowls from the foot to the top for all of my finishing cuts, if you learn to use this grind for finish cuts your sanding will be greatly reduced. You can always sand a piece into submission, but it is not much fun.

What size bowl gouges do you have/use

This 1/2 inch bowl gouge features a medium grind with wing tips that have been ground back so the tool does not catch on the work piece. The fingernail grind is a popular edge with woodturners because it is easy to use and control and extremely versatile. Pull and push cuts delicate shearing cuts or full profile cuts can be made with ease. The medium grind lends itself to easy modification allowing you to create profiles specifically suited to your turning requirements.
