Robert Sorby - Woodturning Tools & Lathe Accessories

World of Woodworking | Robert Sorby - Woodturning Tools & Lathe Accessories

Robert Sorby is the world's premier manufacturer of specialist woodworking tools. The company heritage dates back well over two hundred years and the original Sorby family was one of the leading producers of cutlery and edge tools in Sheffield. In 1624, Robert Sorsbie (a variation on today's pronunciation), was appointed the very first Mastler Cutler by the Company of Cutlers. This company was formed as a way of regulating the standards in the cutlery industry. This group is still in operation today and still serves to protect the rights of the Sheffield name used in manufacturing. The Sorby family led a long and varied history in the cutlery and tooling industry. From their early beginnings in tooling, the company Robert Sorby has developed a specific expertise in edge tool manufacture, which has been passed through the generations to produce today's classic collection of Robert Sorby tools. It is believed that Robert Sorby is one of the oldest hand tool manufacturers in the city and indeed certainly one of the oldest still producing today.

Their production range now focuses much of its business on woodturning and woodcarving. These are certainly tools for those who appreciate top-notch tools.

Robert Sorby are proud to promote that all their tools are fine Sheffield produce, made with the highest quality materials. We are also proud to be promoting these items at The World of Woodworking.

NEW! Robert Sorby Sovereign System

Quantity:

Please select required option:

NEW from Robert Sorby! The Sovereign is a handle system that gives the turner the ability to interchange a large range of gouges and other tool blades. The Sovereign handle is available in two sizes: 16" and 22". Each system comes complete with the desired length handle and two collets 1/2" & 3/8" plus an allen key.

Both handles will accomodate any tool with a 5/8" diameter shank. There are also two sized collets that can be used to allow 1/2" and 3/8" tool shanks to be fitted. Also available as an optional extra is a 1/4" pilot bored collet that can be drilled by the turner to fit a particular sized tool shank.

The range of tools that fit the Robert Sorby Sovereign are as follows:

Bowl Gouges - 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" and 3/4"
Spindle Gouges - 3/8" and 1/2". The 1/4" spindle gouge will fit if the 1/4" pilot bored collet is purchased.
Long & Strong Spindle Gouges - 1/2"
Extra Long Bowl Gouges - 1/2" and 3/4"
Multi Tipped Hollowing Tools are available UNHANDLED to fit (shafts have been turned down to fit in this case) and two more versions of this tool have been developed: the SOV-RS300 Extra Long Multi Tipped Hollowing Tool and the SOV-RS340 Extra Long Hollowmaster.
(All these items are available on the product listing below)

The high quality seamless steel section of the handles assists in vibration dampening and together with the Aluminium head and base gives a well balanced and comfortable feel particuarly during extended use. The Softex grip provides an extremely durable and comfortable grip together with the knurled sections on the head and base which can be securely tightened without fear of damage to the tool shaft. These two screws are located in steel inserts within the head to maintain a perfect threading function time and time again. The head also has a threaded hole in the side for the fitting of an optional side handle to provide additional support, stability and grip. The base can be unscrewed to allow for a counter balance weight to be screwed into the internal thread in the cap giving a balanced feel when using heavy gouges and blades.
Another optional extra is a coupler to allow two handles to be threaded together to create the desired length handle of 32", 38" or 44" for added support and stability.

Please go to the drop down list for all options and prices.

Robert Sorby Bowl Gouges

Quantity:

Please select required size:

The Robert Sorby Bowl Gouges are a must have for all bowl turners. Milled from round bar, giving both mass and stability, these tools are ideal for making bowls. They can produce massive profiling cuts or delicate finishing cuts as necessary. Made from M2 Sheffield High Speed Steel with an Ash Handle that gives comfort, balance and control. The tang is deeply seated in the handle for added safety.

Available as Standard, Fingernail or High Performance.

The Fingernail Bowl Gouges have a fingernail grind. Their increased flexibility allows for 'pull' cuts - avoiding catching the lathe bed. The greater cutting tip area can be used for heavy profiling cuts and fine, delicate shearing cuts.

The High Performance Bowl Gouge is coated with Titanium Nitrade to give it increased performance and resistance to edge wear. The cutting edge on these tools will outlast other Robert Sorby tools by a minimum of three fold, meaning less time is spent sharpening.

All come with 14" Handle and have an overall length of 23" except the Standard 842XLH 1/2" and 3/4" which both have a 17" Handle and overall length of 26" and 26.3/4" respectively.

Robert Sorby Spindle Gouges are intended for use in detailing and are 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 and egg cups etc. Made from M2 Sheffield High Speed Steel with an Ash Handle that gives comfort, balance and control. The tang is deeply seated in the handle for added safety.

The Spindle Gouges are available in Standard, Fingernail, High Performance, Long & Strong and Continental versions.

High Performance Spindle Gouges are coated in Titanium Nitrade to increase performance and resistance to edge wear. Sharpens like any other HSS tool.

The Long & Strong Spindle Gouge have the same strength blade as the standard, only longer. The increased length allows a further reach into the workpiece.

The Continental Style originates from European styles and 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.

Robert Sorby Spindlemaster

Quantity:

Please select required size:

The unique Robert Sorby Spindlemaster is the answer to those who suffer anxiety pangs when faced with the prospect of using a skew chisel. It is easy to master, safe to use, and simple to sharpen... and because it has no corners there is little danger of a dig-in even in the least experienced hands.

It produces all the basic cuts associated with both the skew chisel and spindle gouge: it beads, it coves, it turns square to round and trims end-grain. It is just as effective on sculputural projects like lamp stands and stair spindles as it is on fine finials on box lids and Christmas ornaments.

The Spindlemaster is especially effective on the crudest and softest woods like pine. Its enhanced tip, shear cutting action and highly polished bevel combine to produce a very fine finish on all types of wood - finer than 400 grit paper! And it just sails through knows and other imperfections as if there were not there at all!

Sharpening is straightforward. Simply hone across the flat top face to keep it in tip-top condition.As a result of its contact with the workpiece the bevel is effectively self polishing and should need no further attention.

The Spindlemaster comes complete with a set of illustrated instructions.

A micro version (875H) is now available - this is ideal for pen turning!

Robert Sorby Shear Scrapers

Quantity:

Please select required tool:

The Robert Sorby Shear Scrapers are available as both an external scraper and an internal scraper. Shear Scraping is a recently enhanced method of woodturning which relies on the presentation of the scraper at a shear angle. This technique offers some significant advantages over conventional scrapers.

- At the optimum angle of 45 degrees, the slicing action is safer and produces a superior finish.
- Sanding is often unnecessary.
- The risk of the cutter digging in is virtually eliminated.

The 3/8" square shank sits firmly on the toolrest and presents the cutter at 45 degrees to the workpiece when used in either direction. This is due to the unique cutter seating position. Each tip can be repositioned several times before resharpening becomes necessary. Spare HSS cutters (826C & 827C) are available and are fully interchangeable.

Made from Sheffield M2 High Speed Steel with a comfortable Ash handle that provides balance and control.

Available Handled with HSS cutter or Unhandled.

Robert Sorby RS200KT Multi-Tip Hollowing Tool

Quantity:

Please select required tool:

The Robert Sorby Multi-Tip Hollowing Tool has been described as one of the most versatile tools around. A must have in every turners tool kit. The exclusive Robert Sorby Multi-Tip Tool (RS200KT) features a massive half-round shank and interchangeable tips which combine to offer the turne a variety of different opportunities:

For Hollowing:
There are two HSS hollowing tips which can be used along with the swivel assembly. The first (RS212C) which incorporates an angle of just under 90 degrees is ideal for the initial rapid opening up of an aperture and for creating a crisp corner in the base of boxes. The second tip (RS211C) is more suitable for producing a sweeping curve in the bottom of vases or other hollow forms. The opposite end of each tip has been left deliberately blank for the turner to shape as he pleases. By offsetting the cutter, this tool then enables the turner to under-cut under rims of bowls. Unlike other hollowing systems, it is used with the flat section on the tool rest. This eliminates all the rocking and rolling normally associated with hollowing and puts the turner firmly in control.

Available in two sizes, this is one of the most effective, economical hollowing systems around.

For Scraping:
By fitting the HSS tear drop shaped cutter (RS200C), this tool suddenly becomes a multi-faceted scraper. The shape of the scraper cutter converts the tool into a round, half-round or square scraper suitable for use on the inside and outside of bowls, platters and hollow forms.

With the flat surface of the shank on the tool rest, scraping is in conventional mode. By turning the tool round, with the half-round section of the shank at 45 degrees on the tool rest, it becomes a highly efficient shear scraper giving fine shavings and a highly polished finish.

For Beading and Coving:
As optional extras, there are four additional cutters available -
1/4" & 1/2" beads (RS239C)
3/8" & 5/8" beads (RS236C)
1/4" & 1/2" coves (RS238C)
3/8" & 5/8" coves (RS235C)

The respective beads and coves match exactly. Using these cutters permits the addition of further decorations or the production of wheels, bangles and rings. All tips and cutters are sharpened with the aid of a diamond stone or file. Replacements are readily available.

Overall size: 19"

Robert Sorby Swan Neck Hollowing Tool

Quantity:

Please select required tool:

The Robert Sorby Swan Neck Hollowing Tools are designed for end grain work, hollowing small and miniature work using branch wood or end grain timber. (The items pictured are as follows: (from left to right) 851H, 854 wall thicknessing gauge attached to 851H, 852H with 853, Depth stop attached to the blade, and 850H)

The smallest (850H) is designed to work through the narrowest of apertures, down to as small as 3/8" (10mm). The noring bar and depth stop (852H and 853) form an ideal method of quickly opening up a vessel to provide both entry opening and final hollowing depth. Where space permits the larger tool (851H) provides a heavier section and has the benefit of a replaceable swivel cutting tip. This can be used in conjunction with the wall thickness gauge (854) to create consistent side wall thickness.

The individual shape of these tools makes them suitable for blind turning or under cutting where reach is restricted. The 14" version (851H) is designed for end grain use on shallower depth projects whilst the slightly larger model (855H) allows for greater reach.

The 24" version (859H) is produced from a more substantial section steel, and is more suitable for both end grain and side grain working. These tools are used with the round bar directly behind the swan neck (curved area) against the tool rest.

Both 851H and 855H can be used in conjunction with wall thicknessing gauges.

Available in a set of 3 - includes 850H, 851H and 852H.

Dimensions:

850H - length = 14", Min. aperture = 3/8". Max project = 3"
851H - length = 14", Min. Aperture = 1/2". Max project = 5"
852H - length = 14", Min Aperture = 1/2". Max project = 5"
855H - length = 20", Min Aperture = 1/2" . Max project = 5 1/2"
856H - length = 20", Min Aperture = 1/2" . Max project = 5 1/2"
869H - length = 24", Min Aperture = 5/8". Max project = 7"
853 - Depth Stop for 852H
854 - Wall thicknessing gauge for 851H

Robert Sorby RS2000 Deep Hollowing System

Quantity:

Please select required tool:

The Robert Sorby RS2000 Deep Hollowing System is a tried and tested method of deep vessel hollowing. It is an economically priced adaptation of an original 1980's concept of American master turner, Dennis Stuart, from whom it is made under licence. This flexible system can be used in a number of modes. Firstly it is a very safe and effective means of hollowing deep vessels through narrow openings. At the same time it can be used for coning - producing a series of bowls from the same blank with a minimum of waste wood. This same method enables picture frames and other large rings to be made. Included in the system is a chattertool assembly which enhances end grain by creating a myriad of different decorative effects. The RS2000 is available as a complete system with 20 components in a beauful wooden presentation case or as a basic system (RS2001) which is identical to the complete system except for the elimination of the chattertool components. Alternatively, components may be purchased individually to suit your requirements.

The RS2000 is supplied with a comprehensive 12 page instructional manual with useful guidance and illustrations.

Articulated Probe:
With its moveable head the Articulated Probe (RS213) reaches many inaccessible spots. It can be fitted with either a large scraper (RS213) or the hollowing tips (RS211C & RS212C). The flat working surface gives it more stability than conventional hollowing tools. It should be fitted to the Main Handle (RS202) and Side Handle (RS203) or the Armbrace (RS206).

Slicer:
The hollow ground nose of the tungsten carbide tip allows deep plunge cuts, at any angle, to remove cones from bowls and vessels. The Slicer (RS205) can also be used as a heavy duty parting tool. It should be mounted in the Main Handle with the Side Handle assembled at a convenient position on the Slider Blade. It is recommended that the Side Handle be placed in the vertical position to counteract downward forces.

Hooker:
The Hooker (RS210) is designed as a safe method of hollowing vessels through narrow openings. It comes fitted with a scraper cutter (RS222) for finishing but also takes a swivel assembly and hollowing tips (RS211C & RS212C). Its design allows for both inboard and outboard turning. It should be fitted to the Main Handle (RS202) and Side Handle (RS203) or alternatively the Armbrace (RS206).

Armbrace:
The Armbrace (RS206) was conceived to enhance control and comfort when using either the Hooker, Articulated Probe, or Slicer. It enables the turner to reach further over the tool rest than is normally the case when losing control in the face of rotational forces. The addition of a neoprene grip serves to dampen vibration.

Robert Sorby Captive Ring Tool

Quantity:

Please select required tool/set/cutter:

The New Robert Sorby Captive Ring Tool has a user friendly flat shaft with a specifically designed cutter seat. This seat is machined into both sides of the shaft so that when cutting either side of the captive ring, the cutter is angled in front and into the direction of the cut, giving more control over the cut whilst still keeping the tool flat on the rest. The cutters can be swivelled in the seat allowing the ring to be cut within a limited space. The Captive Ring Tool cutters are interchangeable with the Mushroom Tool (804H) and the Box Hollower (803H). You can sharpen the cutters with a diamond file or honing stone flat across the face. A user instruction guide is included.

Available as an individual tool in various sizes, or in a set complete with all four cutter sizes. Cutters also available separately.

Robert Sorby Texturing Tool

Quantity:

Please select required tool:

The Robert Sorby Texturing Tool enhances turned pieces by producing a myriad of different textures. It can be used to create unique effects that alter the tactile and visual qualities of your bowls, hollow forms, goblets or boxes perfect for adding that individual mark to your work. Orange peel, striated and ribbed patterns are possible using this tool. Some of these effects are subtle, some are coarse and some are aggressive depending on the angle of the cutter as it makes contact with your work and the amount of pressure applied. The effects vary considerably depending on the type of wood used, whether it is a bowl, spindle or end grain work and the angle at which the tool is presented. Further variations are possible with the application of dyes, liming waxes and flame scorching, all of which create interesting contrasts. A useful tip: choose the pattern you want and texture a defined area, this may be the rim or a band around the bowl. The interplay between the textured and non textured areas can be stunning!

Available as just the cutter or as complete tool with handle.

Robert Sorby Spiralling & Texturing System

Quantity:

Please select required tool/component:

The Robert Sorby Spiralling and Texturing System offers the finest way to add decorations such as spirals to turned pieces, once dominated by only priviledged turners. The Robert Sorby Spiralling System is a further development on the texturing tool and is used to create both left and right handed spirals with ease. It features an innovative rest with indexed reference positionsm which enable the replication of the spirals. Differing pitch and twist profiles are made possible by altering the presentation angle of the cutter or by changing the cutter to a different one.

The Texturing Tool is part of the system and includes a graduated rest and 2mm, 4mm and 6mm Spiralling Cutters. Items also available individually.

With these you can create spiral goblets, candle holders, boxes, vases, bowls and spillikins. There are also 5mm and 11mm cutters available as optional extras.

A useful tip: sharpening the cutters is easy - simply rub a diamond file flat on each of the bevels. This will keep the cutter in top condition!

Robert Sorby Stebcentres

Quantity:

Please select required option:

The Robert Sorby Stebcentre is an invaluable accessory for every woodturner. Fitted in the lathe head-stock, it is a boon for the novice and the experienced. Its ring of sharp teeth ensure that the Stebcentre bites the wood to give more security and drive. Because there are several points of contact there is minimal risk of splitting. The Stebcentre can be used with equal confidence on both soft and hardwoods as well as synthetic materials. In its patented design the Stebcentre also features a spring-loaded point. By slightly backing off the tail-stock, the work piece still remains resting between the revolving centre and the Stebcentre. This allows the turner to inspect his work without the need to switch off the lathe. Where time is a critical factor, the Stebcentre is ideal as the work-piece can be quickly removed without stopping the lathe.

Overall length - 4".

Available in 3 different head sizes - 1/2", 7/8" and 1 1/4". Also in 1 Morse Taper, 2 Morse Taper in all sizes and 3 Morse Taper on the 1 1/4" size only.

Another idea devised from the Sorby Stebcentre is something inspired by Norweigan turner Petter Herud - a series of Revolving (or Live) Stebcentres has been introduced.

Not only do these offer the same degree of security as the conventional Stebcentre, but they have been allowed the turner to experiment with basic off-centre turning.

Available in 3 head sizes - 1/2", 7/8" and 1 1/4" and in both 1 and 2 Morse Taper for all sizes.
