Easy Turning Tools by Easy Wood Tools
Easy Rougher - The Next Step in Woodturning
The Easy Rougher is a carbide cutter woodturning 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 and level to the floor, the Easy Rougher will effortlessly hog
away massive amounts of material for any woodturning process without the need for sharpening. 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. No more ‘white knuckling’ a bowl gouge.

Lexan Chip Deflector

will not regret having this deflector in place for those cuts.

Not a substitute for proper eye protection.

Deflector was designed to be looked over rather than through.
-
The Easy Rougher tools produce large volumes of shavings like no other tool you have ever experienced.

Easy Finisher - Yet Another Innovation in Woodturning
With another step forward in woodturning innovation, Easy Wood Tools now offers you a tool to take up where the Easy Rougher leaves off. The Easy Finisher has a round
carbide cutter perfect for doing the inside work on smaller bowls and for larger coves on spindle work. Our carbide inserts are made in the USA and we are pleased to offer you a tool that is 100%
"made in America."
"If you own one of our existing Easy Roughers, you well know by now that we deliver even more than we advertise, as hard as is was for you to believe before your first
purchase. I assure you the productivity of this tool will exceed your highest expectations. You just can not predict the possibilities or joy this tool will provide you. In testing the prototypes
for this new design, I found myself creating forms that were never even on my list to try because the dangers and complications of existing tools were just not worth the trouble." ~Craig Jackson,
Founder
Like the other Easy tools, the Easy Finishers are designed to be used with the tool rest set so that when the tool is held level the top of the cutter is on center.
Then just keep it level to the floor and flat on the tool rest for all types of cuts... it does not get any easier than that. There are no complicated approach angles, or bevels to ride. The design
of this tool allows the Easy Finisher to effortlessly cut from the center of a bowl out to the rim OR from the rim to the center! All without changing any angles whatsoever. You just stand in one
spot and cut coming and going until you get to the shape you want.
The Easy Finisher utilizes the same carbide cutter technology as the Easy Rougher that reduces strain and fatigue, improves productivity, and virtually eliminates
sharpening. It comes loaded with one round cutter and when it gets dull, you just rotate the cutter for a fresh cut. Please note: The round cutters are not interchangeable with the carbide cutters
on the Easy Rougher tool bars.
When the cutter eventually gets dull, just loosen the retaining screw and rotate cutter about 1/4 of a turn, then re-tighten the screw.
We promise this tool will open up a whole new level of design possibilities for your craft and it will exceed your expectations. If not, return for a complete
refund.

Available in four sizes - Mini, Mid-Size, Full-Size and Pro. See purchase page for all products, sizes and accessories.
Easy Detailer
The Easy Detailer tools really pick up where other tools leave off and provide another level of woodturning creativity as the unique diamond cutter shape fits in tight
places where the cutters on the other tools will just not fit.
These tools were designed for the primary purpose of doing the small intricate work and cutting final details on your projects such as small coves and beads on both
spindle and bowl work. They are also very handy for cutting chuck tenons and making inside reverse angle cuts for inside chucking bowls with dovetail jaws. You may find they work well for hogging
your green wood projects too.
The Easy Detailers are engineered to cut going straight in employing just the nose of the tool.
The Easy Detailer tools are engineered with a reduced relief angle to the long cuttings edges making the long edges less aggressive when held in contact with the wood
as the nose of the tool is cutting. In use, the long edge is intended to perform as a "control surface" and serve to be in contact with the wood just behind the cut; much like a bevel is being
rubbed.
For safety reasons, avoid plunging the tool so deep into the work at once to the depth you would have both sides of the cutter in contact with the wood too greatly at
the same time. This could cause too much force at once and lead to binding of the tool in the groove.
Each diamond-shaped Easy Detailer cutter is engineered to fit all size Detailer tools in our current product line. When the cutter eventually dulls, just loosen the
retaining screw and rotate cutter, then re-tighten the screw.

Introducing the new Easy Chuck
Kurt Hertzog loves the new Easy Chuck
The most recent addition to the woodturning chuck market comes from the Easy Wood Tools Company. Most widely known for their families of carbide cutter woodturning tools, they also produce
faceplates and smocks for the woodturning community. The Easy Chuck is the first product from Easy Wood Tools in the woodturning chuck arena.
From first appearances, the Easy Wood Tools Easy Chuck body looks very similar to the mid sized body chucks available from many other manufacturers located throughout the world. The EWT chuck is
packaged nicely in a sturdy high gloss black box adorned with the EWT logos and colors. It looks a bit different as soon as you remove the chuck from the box. The chuck has a different colored ring
that runs around the back. In addition to the chuck, the box contains the instruction manual, T-handle chuck wrench, a handled ball end key wrench, and a bag with a spindle washer, replacement
springs and grub screws.
