I used one at Woodcraft and I didn't like it. So I just got the big Raffan skew and just learned how to use it. One of the best things I did was got the video The Skew Chisel by Alan Lacer. Most excellent video. Get one of the drive centers like he shows and don't put a lot of tension on the tailstock so if you do have a catch the wood stops turning. I can now cut a small finial with a 1 3/8" by 1/4" skew now problem
