....I am just wondering if you would like to borrow mine, but you are some distance away. Only problem with that is mine is fitted to a 1" toolpost. What size is yours? ....
Thanks so much for that offer, it is very generous
... The Toolpost are now the Uk distributors and have dropped the prices (I think) but talk to Peter and he'll give you the latest info....
Sound advise....have just come off the phone with Peter
... You're more than welcome to come and try out both or either if it helps but I know I'm not exactly down the road from you!...
Thank you, Paul, for the advise and the offer, it is much appreciated.
...A good video on how to set it up and use it is one by Dale Bonertz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mS2yIb0HAU4...
Thanks, John...will check that out this evening
Many, many thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread today. It certainly speaks volumes for the benefits of this forum and for the generosity of so many of its members. After reading all the comments, I spoke to Peter at Toolpost and have ordered one. I'll practice on staright grained ash and then give the more expensive lumps of burr a go when I feel proficient at using it.
