As a newbie lathe owner ( Baby Seig C-0). I'm having a little trouble turning very small parts. I have been using the 8mm shanked cutting tools that came with the lathe and while they cut very well they aren't the easiest to use to turn really small parts. I don't have a bench grinder or the skill to grind my own from scratch so I was wondering if there are some smaller cutting tools commercially available. Or is it just a matter of my lack of skill with the lathe?
Are there any good books that describe how to use a lathe for the hobbyist?
Thank you all for all the great ideas and information on this forum as it was a great help to me in the purchase of my lathe and got me started turning.
