Some examples include pens, Christmas ornaments, bottle stoppers, handles and bowls, just to name a few. To use the Mid Size Simple Rougher just follow these 3 simple steps.

While securely holding the tool slowly move the carbide cutter into the work. Because of the small tool shaft the tool should not extend past the tool rest more than 3 inches.
