Once you've got a nice blank spinning on the wood lathe, you'll want to shape it by holding something sharp to it. We're only getting started with woodturning, but as we learn this page will grow with information about various forms of turning tools (a multi-photo imagemap will be nice for easy navigation).
Lukas just got a cheap beginner's set consisting of
- 12 mm gouge (Formröhre)
- 26 mm skew chisel (Drechselbeitel)
- 13 mm round nose scraper (Schaber rund)
- 4 & 6 mm parting tools (Abstechstähle)
that will soon be available in the CoMakingSpace.

Also called the "woodturner's plane" - can create nice surfaces, but prone to snatching on the wood if you're not experienced! [1]

Scrapers are not really used for cutting but have an edge with a burr similar to that on a card scraper. Instead of removing a lot of wood you can use this tool for delicate finishing touches. Read more about this tool here (Doc Green).
We have one round nose scraper to start with.
