Chisels likely were the original turning tools and they are today’s go-to tools for leaving a super smooth finish on spindle work. Their versatility includes not only planing cuts that leave a super smooth surfaces but rolling beads in tight places, making shallow coves, end-grain cuts and making notches for starting tight coves with a detail gouge. Its also a great roughing gouge! It is hands down the most efficient turning tool and, for many professional turners, the only tool they use for spindle work!
