Required rental for anyone new to a metal lathe. It is a little slow at times, but Randy explains how to sharpen tool steel lathe bits with enlarged examples that were easy to understand. He covers the various types of bits such as tool steel, carbide, exotics, and others and their use in the lathe. He expands on this to include a discussion about the proper tool holders to use with each type and what is required for a good cut. Finally, Randy guides us through grinding the bits properly and building a grinder jig. The prints are included. The video really answered the questions that I had about tooling and my lathe.
