Carbide insert turning tools are typically used with the tool on the
centreline of the lathe, held horizontal to the ground. Ultra-Shear
tools use this approach for roughing and shaping cuts. But Ultra-Shear
goes further. After initial shaping, roll the tool right or left and you

will feel the tool land on another bearing plane, 45º from horizontal.
With the tool at this angle, the wood fibres slice cleanly, leaving a
surface that needs little or no sanding. Ultra-Shear makes shear
scraping so simple even beginners can do it.

trimmed perpendicular to and perfectly flush with both ends of the precision-machined milling head, that’s large enough to trim 19mm

insert tube. The trimming process is fundamentally important to pen blanks whilst accepting a wide range of Pilot Reamers to cater
