Robert Sorby Continental Spindle Gouge’s, have gained a reputation for their superb handling qualities on spindle work. Being a forged construction, they have an even wall thickness, thereby increasing finesse without compromising strength.

Spindle Gouge are ideal for fine detailing on spindle work. Having the wing tips ground back reduces the danger of them catching when working in confined areas. Easily maintained and sharpened using the Robert Sorby ProEdge sharpening system

Long Spindle Gouge's are identical to the standard strength gouges. The increased length of the blades allows a further reach into the workpiece.

Micro Spindle Gouge is ideal for spindle work on small and miniature turned pieces such as dolls house furniture. It also provides an alternative to using a full size tool of this size on smaller lathes. A great utility tool.

Micro Spindle Gouge 1/8" a great companion for the larger but equally adept ¼" Micro Spindle Gouge. Both these tools are ideal for making miniature furniture pieces. See Iulia Chin’s work in Tool and Techniques.

These are detailing tools used on between-centre work, where the grain is running parallel to the lathe bed. Spindle gouges are used to create coves, beads and other profiles on goblets, vases, bed posts, candle sticks and other spindle projects.

Roughing Gouges are recommended for the initial turning of uneven or square spindle stock to round. The shape of the spindle roughing gouge enables the tool to cut safely with the wings (the tips of the side walls) well back from the workpiece. Not designed for use on bowl grain projects.
