Wood Turning Accessories

The AXE™
Full Size Square Carbide Tipped Tool

The Axe™ replaceable carbide tip woodturning tools from Carter Products are setting a new industry standard in the turning world. Made in the USA, the unique design of these tools features a 16" solid Maple handle. Ergonomically shaped, the handles have two large flats incorporated to provide positive registration in the hand while providing hours of comfortable turning. Another feature of these tools is the 5/8" round 303 stainless steel tool bar. A 1/2" flat has been machined onto the tool bar to provide a secure purchase on the tool rest.

You no longer need to worry about sharpening your turning tools. With four razor-sharp cutting edges available, simply loosen the set screw and rotate the cutter to a new edge when one becomes dull. Additionally the design of the cutters does not require you to “find the bevel” like traditional turning tools. Place the tool onto the rest flat and parallel to the ground, advance the tool slowly into the workpiece, and begin cutting. Tools can cut from left to right, or right to left.

The Axe Square Tool comes equipped with two cutters, one square and one radius square cutter, and is designed to remove large amounts of material quickly and effortlessly.

The AXE™
Hybrid™ Square Carbide Tipped Tool

This tool features a square carbide bit and is a new size Carter calls the Hybrid™. Carter created the Hybrid™ line which has many of the tool bar size advantages to a smaller mini size tool, while retaining a fuller sized midi handle to give added functionality while not sacrificing any control from a too small handle. All shafts still feature the same great functions of the full size AXE™ but in a smaller package. The bits on all but the Diamond are a smaller size to go along with the smaller shafts.

The handle has flat sides and angled rear. The tapper and flats on the rear not only allow for a more comfortable grip, but in the round and square tool they allow for positive angle registration when sheer cutting with the tool slightly angled. To facilitate the transition of angled cutting, both the round and square tipped tools have flat bases with slightly radius edges to allow smooth flowing movement from flat to angled. The flats also allow you to know the angle of the cutter when it isn't so easy to see as in bowls or other turnings where the cutter head is inside the piece.

All tools in the AXE line will repeat the same color code throughout the line. Thus, any size tool with a gold ferrule will be a detail tool. Any tool with a red ferrule will be a round tool and any tool with a blue ferrule will be a square tool. This way, at a moment’s glance to the tool rest, the correct tool can be found every time. As we add other shapes or cutters, new colors will follow but remain consistent within the entire AXE line. We plan to try to have different color handles per size as well. Thus the full size is hard maple and the Hybrid™ size is cherry also done for that visual instant tool recognition.

Features:

• All tools in the AXE line repeat the same color code throughout the line.
• Two large flats incorporated into the handle provide positive registration in the hand
• The bar is full stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• No more sharpening; simply rotate the cutter once dulled
• The handle is solid hard Cherry
• Made in USA
