A few of the chisels in the pack seem to be gouges for lathe work, is that correct or am I off thew mark?

I consider these to be strictly hand tools for use with a mallet. I do not think the wood/metal joint on the handle would stand up to lathe work.

Don't know returned mine due to ongoing issues. Those problems were experienced by quite a few owners and discussed in the forum. Some appeared a few months after purchase.Save the money and buy something better.If you Google CNC & Stone cutting you will find some information.

Hello Valerie, used wood and planers are a touchy subject. I recommend taking a belt sander with a rough grit and expose the surface for any hidden nails...etc. Then at least you will wear out a belt instead of a costly set of planer knives...Makitas are great

If you mean chisels this would work great. If they have a rounded edge I am not sure what you would use.

Everything but the lathe tools and bowl chuck. I recommend at least a bowl gouge and a scrapper. This is a good lathe for making bowls.

Good question I really can't say if it is or not... I got them one because i love Dewalt stuff and two it came in a two pact... I put one in my Dewalt table saw and one in my Dewalt power miter box... They make nice clean cuts and I'm very satisfied...

I have not used it for that but I imagine it would work great. Works very well on chisels and lathe tools.

I'm not sure of the concerns in the question. Checking for stainless? Does "checking for squareness" suggest product concerns? I initially confirmed the entire set against my saw table, which I trust, and found all to be accurate.

Agree with the others. Mine is a chisel tip, about 1.8 to 2.0mm across at the tip. It's probably a T18, although D16 would be 1.2mm and mine is a bit wider than that. Personally, I would get one finer tip (for really intricate work), and one larger one for heavier work. The tip that comes with it is a good all-purpose one.

I was told the other day while purchasing a Porter Cable saw at Lowes that I should avoid the Dewalt due to paying extra for the name, not sure if this to be true or not. I purchased a Steel City planer and so far so good, the head is what sold me, I used a knife machine but prefer the helical head.

The tips are. The blade part is thick and not sharp. I would still be careful with it.

China (more than likely). Almost every chisel in the set I purchased was not ground sharp. These were nearly useless for me.

Mine is exceptionally flat. I am not sure, however, if I would notice the difference between five or ten- thousandths of an inch in a chisel or plane blade. All I can tell you is my DWT 8 inch (all 3) was money well invested. Like the others, you wouldn't see a gap against a dead flat surface.

I have turned over 1000 bowls on this lathe and I have not discovered any "defects". It has worked well. I have two other lathes so I have a good comparison. I would prefer the lathe to have a bigger swing so I could turn larger bowls, but that is not a defect.

Honestly I do not know nor was I even aware of such an issue. My knife is very well made, feels great in the hand, quality of blade & sheath is better than I expected for the price. I am a small collector of edged weapons (swords/knives/spears/axes etc.), I have approximately 150+ items, I only use a few, I have 4-5 folders for EDC & 3-4 fixed blade knives & 3 machetes & 2 swords that I use or would use for SHTF events, the rest is just for viewing. BTW all my blades are qualified as BATTLE READY, no stainless steel swords etc.

I didn't have any issues cutting with mine... Free hand in a jig saw you are always correcting. Were you using in some fixed tabletop saw perhaps to notice?

No defects. The lathe is the best I have ever had. Extremely reliable, even with very heavy pieces.
