Easy Wood Tools Full Size Easy Rougher (1200) with Replaceable Carbide for Lathe Woodturning
Description
The Easy Wood Tools Full Size Easy Rougher is a replaceable carbide insert
woodturning lathe tool that addresses fatigue, safety, and efficiency like no
other type of tool on the market. Designed to be kept flat on the tool rest,
level to the floor and pushed straight into your work, the Easy Rougher will
effortlessly hog away massive amounts of wood. No intimidating cutting angles
to learn and remember-cuts left, right and straight in without changing
approach angle. This simple approach to turning allows you to learn and master
wood turning in no time. The tool design provides support directly beneath the
cutting edge transferring the cutting pressure downward allowing the lathe to
“take the pounding” that you would normally suffer through when using a
conventional bowl gouge for roughing. Requires very little physical strength
or exertion, so no more ‘white knuckling’ a bowl gouge. Truly deeper cuts – up
to 1 inch off the diameter in one pass with the Full Size Rougher. Maximum
reach from tool rest is 4 inches. Super hard Maple handle is 16 inches long
with easy grip handle. Solid CNC machined stainless steel tool bar is 8.5
inches long and 1/2 inch square. Overall tool length is 24.5 inches The Full
Size Rougher accepts 4 different proprietary carbide cutters: Ci1-R2 (2 inch
radius) , Ci1-R4 (4 inch radius), Ci1-SQ (no radius along flat) and our
Patented Ci1R2 Negative Rake Carbide Cutter. These carbide cutters have four
sharp sides and are easily rotated to expose new sharp edges. You will never
need to sharpen again! Cutters are specially designed with the optimal grind,
geometry and grade of carbide to excel at woodturning. The rougher comes with
a Ci1-R4 square carbide cutter installed and a hex wrench. The Easy Rougher is
capable of plunge cuts similar to using a giant parting tool. This type of cut
sends massive amounts of material straight back at the operator. Available
Chip Deflector keeps most shavings away from the face and neck.
