Home » Tool Care

With a minimum of care the handles of our tools will outlast the tool blades indefinitely.  The key to the longevity of our tool systems is a reasonable amount of cleanliness.  Tools that have been used with wet wood, should be wiped down prior to putting away for the day.

Our patented quick disconnect system is a totally new concept in woodturning tools. When it comes to our newly developed “quick release system” (miniGlaser QR) please note that the tools are manufactured to the highest tolerances in the industry.  The base of the blade should be free of excessive debris before inserting it into the handle adapter.

If dirt is introduced into the handle connection system, simply wipe out with a Q-tip or remove it with compressed air. We have determined that acetone is a good cleaner for the adapters, but we do NOT recommend that it is used on ANY of our handles.

The important thing to remember is that the tolerances of our modular system is very precise.  Keeping the base of the tools reasonably clean will assure many years of enjoyable turning.

READ ABOUT IT

We thank woodturning magazine's, Tegan Foley, Rhona Bolger and Mr. Mark Baker for their interest in our products.

We have been extremely successful with our unique and patented "Quick-Release" system. Soon, woodturners around the world, will be able to enjoy our patented QR adapter in our upcoming Synergy Ultragouge tool line and enjoy the outstanding properties of our newly developed steel Cauldron 305.

In its final developmental phase, Synergy is bound to impact the industry with its fantastic modularity and performance.

STILL MORE NEWS FROM ENGLAND!

We are also on the pre-manufacturing phase of David Springett's tool line.

I am sure you all know of David's fantastic books and videos http://www.davidspringett.fws1.com). He has a new edition of his "Woodturning Wizardry" book out for sale. You will not regret owning this book.

I had the pleasure to receive him at our facility. It was in a way a dream come true for me. I have always admired David since I started woodturning. To know that I will have the honor to manufacture his tools, is an absolute treat for me.

David's tools will most definitely be showcased with our QR adapter!

This will be an exciting ride!

QR SYSTEM!

Our miniGlaser QR continues to break boundaries. All of the customers who have purchase this fantastic set have reported that the performance and easiness of tool changes are incredible..

Recently, one of our customers, Mr. Bill Wyko at the Sawmill Creek Forum, stated that our miniGlaser tools have what he calls" "Napoleon Syndrome"... They DO NOT know they are small. They tackle big turning like any other large tool.

We will continue to innovate! That is the Glaser Legacy we are responsible to continue!




THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND FOR KEEPING AMERICAN MANUFACTURING IN THE USA.
