Why are there different cutters?

Oval Cutters:

The oval cutter is great for shaping and finishing, combining the usefulness of a square AND round cutter into a single tool.

1. Oval cutter (for wood)-The oval cutters are perfect for virtually any curved shape imaginable especially on the outside of your project.
   
   
2. Oval negative rake cutter (for epoxy/resin, hybrid and wood)- Like the oval cutter but the negative rake grind also makes this cutter less aggressive. This reduces chipping in very hard materials (epoxy/resin), can reduce tear out in softer materials and provides a great finish in both man-made materials and harder woods. Because the negative rake grind is less aggressive, many people find it easier to use.

Rectangular Cutters:

The rectangular cutters make it simple to create square inside corners, beads and straight lines. Perfect for the inside and outside base of any project.

1. Rectangle cutter (for wood)- This cutter shines on the outside of bowls, hollow forms, vases, platers, and wooden pen blanks. You'll also love it for simple spindle work too. Another place you’ll love this cutter is on the inside of a box.
   
   
2. Rectangle negative rake cutter (for epoxy/resin, hybrid and wood)- Like the rectangle insert but the negative rake grind makes this cutter less aggressive. This reduces chipping in very hard materials, can reduce tear out in softer materials and provides a great finish in both man-made materials and harder woods. Because the negative rake grind is less aggressive, many people find it easier to use.
   
   
3. Replacement carbide cutters can be found

How Do I Use the Simple Scraper?

• Position the tool rest as close to the work as possible so the carbide cutter is at the lathe center line.
  
• Place the tool on the tool rest with the tool shaft parallel with the floor.
  
• While securely holding the tool slowly move the carbide cutter into the work.
