Welcome to Thompson lathe Tools
Made by a woodturner for woodturners!

These are the highest quality turning tools on the market today, each one handcrafted in a 13 step process.
Please forgive the sold out sign next to some tools, they will be restocked. To keep the quality high and price low it will continue like it is... each handcrafted by me... one at a time.

WHAT'S NEW!
Everything has settled down to a point I can start milling again to restock the tools, this batch will include skews and scrapers... finally! Due at the end of Aug.
