Acrylic, Resin and Hybrid projects have changed the woodturning landscape.Traditional carbide tipped tools did not perform well with these new materials, so we set out to make a solution. The birth of our Acrylic/Resin (AR) tool line came as a result of a lot of trials (and errors), turning all types of man-made and hybrid projects.AR SSR: 3/8" square solid stainless steel shaft with 11mm square carbide cutter with negative rake angle. This simple to use tool with a square negative rake angle cutter on a square shaft is ideal for roughing and making straight lines and flat surfaces.AR STH: ½" round solid stainless steel shaft with 12mm round flat top carbide cutter. The classic “riding the bevel” technique, the same used as with a traditional gouge, produces great shear cutting action as opposed to a scraping cut that chips man made materials. This technique is the answer to cutting difficult materials as well as wood so it is the perfect tool for hybrid projects.Turning acrylics takes longer than wood. Shearing cuts proved to be very successful, where scraping cuts were not.
