Woodturning Supplies

Woodcraft have closed. They had a great selection, but alaw - it's gone. There are some turning blanks (bowl, pen, etc.) at Curtis Lumber - Ballston Spa

Specifically, I am looking for one of those diamond sharpening plates(?) he size of a credit card. They sell for about $15 but I can't find one up here. Anything else related to turning, tools, chisels, etc would be nice, but not wood. That I have enough of for a while. Plus, I don't even know if they would let me cross the border with blanks.

So basically, hand tools.

Harbor Freight (In Colonie, on Central Ave) has similar items

And something that is new to me:

Harbor freight has the cheap HSS chisel set.

He Mike you're in luck, Busy Bee has the 2X6 diamond plates on sale right now for $8.99. Here's a link if you like to take a peek.

The ones from Busy Bee I already have. They don't work for small skews. The holes are too big. What I am looking for is a solid piece of steel, the same thickness and rough size of a credit card.

Thanks anyway.

Thanks. I'll pay Harbor Freight a visit.

I don't own the HF version, but the diamonds aren't solidly across the surface. Check the web page for pictures. Don;t want you to waste a trip...
