Question:There are dozens of turning tool so please be precise..
Answers:
O.K.! there are several type's of tool's used in the turning of bowl's, as there are for "normal" wood-turning. A "Bowl Gouge" is used for heavy removal of wood, these come in several size's. Then there are "Bowl Scrapers" for finer finishing of the inner bowl surface. Last but not least there are "Bowl Sanders", all would or should be available at any good turning supplies store, or tool shop. Also, go to a few of the on-line store's and have a look at what they carry, you don't have to buy but it will give you an idea as to what is around, what it looks like and a good idea of what you should be paying. I hope that helps!...
