This is a picture of five wood turning tools I made using 36 inches of 1/4 inch water hard drill rod in the last three days. It cost $3.40 cents for the rod. I had to torch them using a Map gas burner and quench it in water to get the steel hard. I shaped the ones that are bent using a vice and hammer. I used the new straight tools to make some finial for some boxes that I have made. They are nearing completion. December 25, 2012.
