WORK-PIECE INSPECTION

The work-piece must be inspected before
turning. Some work-pieces are not safe to
turn or may require adjustment before they
are safe for turning. Before turning any
wood, make sure to inspect it for nails,
staples, small pieces of stone or metal and
any other object which is dangerous to
come on contact with the chisel.
If the work-piece contains any of these
objects and it comes in contact with the
chisel, the object might fly and hit the
operator or seriously damage the chisel.
For a safe turning operation always inspect
your work-piece carefully before cut and
wear eye protection.
Some woods with excessive twisting or
wrapping are un-stable while cutting and
are dangerous to cut. Do not turn these
work-pieces at a high speed or the work-
piece can come off and cause serious
injury.
Cutting wet or green stock gives poor result
when turned.
Some work-pieces with large/loose knots
can break into half during the operation and
can cause serious injury and damage to the
tool.
