SPINDLE TURNING
If you have never done any amount of wood turning, we
suggest that you practice using the various wood turning
tools.
Start with a small spindle turning.
Be sure to study the following pages of this manual. They
explain and illustrate the correct use of the turning tools,
the positioning of the tool rest and other information to
help you gain experience.
1. Select a piece of wood 1/2"x1/2"x4".
2. Draw diagonal lines on each end to locate the centers.
3. On one end, make a saw cut approximately 1/16"
deep on each diagonal line. This is for the spur center.
4. The other end uses the bearing center. Place the point
of the bearing center on the wood where the diagonal
lines cross.
5. Drive the bearing center into the wood, Use a wooden
mallet or a plastic hammer, but cover the end of the
bearing center with a piece of wood to protect it from
harm.
