I will recommend it to anyone looking to save some money. He exposes the dirty secrets of the turning industry. For example instead of paying through the nose for that bowl gouge, take a regular one and re-cut the bevel on it. That's the big change that the manufacturers try to stick us six prices for. Lots of good tips and how too stuff in it. For 20 to 30 bucks you can get a wood tap and start making your own faces plates and chucks, The book shows you how. Not everyone will get any use from it. Making your own tools and such requires care and patience. If you have that, then get this book. If you'd rather plop down the credit card and charge into the wild woody yonder then don't bother. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Cool Book! *by F***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 17, 2014* I will have to admit to you right off, I recently purchased this book and have not actually read it cover to cover. I have taken a leisurely browse through it and have read some parts of it here and there. I spent about an hour doing this after I first recieved it. It is loaded with pictures and all sorts of information. Since I have yet to actually turn my first project I am thinking that as I move forward in my efforts this book will come to be more useful and important to me. Since woodturning tools can be very expensive it is always a good thing to have a little help along the way with converting one tool into another. The readings I have made so far, wanting to learn some about this hobby or possible livelihood. I have already learned that on occasion one will have to make some specialized tool to either make things easier or possible at all. I am knowing that this book will gain in value as I progress. The pictures and text seem to be very plain and clear. I was able to understand what the steps were and how to go about it just from the reading of it. The author is an experienced woodturner and has made lots of his own tools and jigs to make possible some of the projects within the book. I would hightly recomend getting this book if you think you will be seriously getting into woodturning. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just right for this phase of my woodturning journey *by L***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 3, 2014* I've had a wood lathe for about 2 years now, and consider myself at best an advanced beginner. There's a lot to be learned, there's a lot to explore, and my comments in this area reflect that state of knowledge and experience.I found Conover's book filled with useful tidbits and tips, things that I can apply now as well as info that I'm gonna have to grow into. I've been able to take information from this book directly to my lathe and put into practice, while other techniques I can visualize being of use as my skills develop. Because of my blacksmithing experience, I probably have a headstart on the toolmaking portion of this journey, but the application of tooling as it relates to turning is immensely valuable and I'm glad to have this volume in my how-to library. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14688106-the-frugal-woodturner-make-and-modify-all-the-tools-equipment](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14688106-the-frugal-woodturner-make-and-modify-all-the-tools-equipment) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
