New! Robert Sorby Modular Handled

Micro Tool System


Robert Sorby continues to lead the way with woodworking tool innovation 
with the introduction of the all new Micro tool system.

 

The system is centred on the beautifully engineered burgundy anodised aluminium handle. Into this handle can be fitted an array of tools.
There are 4 separate tool Sets available:
Micro Sandmaster

Micro Spindle Set

Micro Spiralling Tool

Micro Hollowing Set

The main benefit of this system is that the woodturner can buy just one of the sets which include the modular handle and then add any of the other sets to complement their collection.
                                                      


MICRO SANDMASTER

The introduction of the micro Sandmaster comes from an increased interest by woodturners of producing smaller, more delicate work.
This system uses the same free spinning technology as the existing Robert Sorby Sandmaster but utilises a 1" (25mm) foam pad, onto which can be fitted the 1" (25mm) Velcro style abrasive discs.
The position of the head can be adjusted so those awkward-to-get-at spots can be sanded.
The head is available separately for those who already have the handle.

The micro Sandmaster comprises of an aluminium handle, micro Sandmaster head, 1" (25mm) foam pad and eight abrasive discs, two of each of the 120, 180, 240 and 400 grits , two Allen keys and instructions.
