I recently bought a wood lathe. The tools that I bought from the same company are not what I was hoping for. This set seems more like what I need, and the price was in my range.

Husband ready to add to turning hobby! This had what he needed at affordable price. He's not yet ready to invest in expensive tools. He has been very happy with this set for his beginner level. Was able to order on line and save the two hr drive to our nearest Rockler store.

I was looking for an inexpensive "standard size" turning set with rough gouge, scraper, parting tool and a couple of gouges. It fit that bill

What's the best tool for turning a pen ?
Dennis D on May 20, 2017
BEST ANSWER: If you haven't done much turning then I suggest Rockler's carbide turning set (47600) I would suggest these for a few reasons, one is the you don't need is sharpening system The other is the learning curve is very low.
What country were they made?
Sandera A on Feb 20, 2017
BEST ANSWER: These are made in the U.S.
What steel are these made from?
I thank you for your help.
Bill
Bill S on Dec 22, 2016
BEST ANSWER: HSS. They are ok for occasional turning or entry level. You get a whole set for less than a single Sorby.

Turning Tool Set by Great Neck.
This tool set was very useful for most of my turning projects.The only tool missing from this set was a Bowl Gouge. I will need to purchase this tool by itself. All the other tools were well built with good balance and wood stocks.I did purchase the Wolverine tool sharpener kit to keep all the tools handy with sharp cutting edges. The length of the tools are perfect for that balance when cutting.Good job on the design.

I just bought a lathe and picked these tools for their price mainly. They all needed a good sharpening before use, but seem to take a good edge. I hope they will hold up. They're great for a beginner like me.

Since I do not do that much lathe turning, these tools were the right choice for me in quality and price.

High Carbon tool steel
Not good on hard wood, needed to sharpen often. Better to by HHS tools or better yet the carbide which is great but a little pricey. I really like the carbide

Cheap quality. Handles easily slide off
I bought this set of turning tools to use as a beginner in the world of wood turning. I thought they were a good deal and would last long enough to get sufficient experience before investing in better quality tools. It was a total waste. The handles separated from two of the gouges right out of the box. A total waste of time and expense. Save your money. Don't buy this set of tools. Buy two or three good quality tools that will do the job well and then continue investing in quality turning tools.

Reasonable priced spindle turning set.
These probably don't compare to Sorby tools, but for someone just starting out turning, this is a pretty decent set of tools. They sharpen well, and will hold the edge throughout a project. They are the perfect length for turning smaller items.

I love my tools, but the tools, when I received them, were not as sharp as I had expected them to be. Just a few times of using them I am having to resharpen them. Other than that, they're good tools!
