Abstract

A rest for a hand held wood turning tool which facilitates the forming of concave and convex surfaces has a horizontal rest bar comprising two joined and oppositely curving arcuate portions of different curvature in the general form of a letter "S," with a bevelled tool rest surface extending continuously along one side thereof and an intermediately positioned downwardly extending cylindrical mounting post. A simplified modification has a single horizontal arcuate rest bar with bevelled tool rest surfaces extending along both sides.
