Sharp edges

Post by buster »

For the PITH this year I want to try to put some sharp crisp edges on the pipe. A good example would be a ring around a cylinder. Any tips or tricks?

Are you on a lathe or carving freehand?

Check out Raffan doing a little easy-peasy work with the skew (and that's the answer - get good with a skew chisel)
