Enjoy this preview of the new 3D animation technology that you’ll find in the Tool Proficiency Video Series from SB Educational Media. These animations will coincide with techniques demonstrated by Stuart and other woodturning instructors. The 3D animations provide additional viewpoints that cannot be captured with cameras. They clearly demonstrate movements and angles with striking simplicity.

In the first Tool Proficiency Video, The Vortex Tool, the animations will demonstrate tool placement and motions in sharpening. Sharpening will be shown on both the SB OmniGrinder belt system and on a typical bench grinder that uses grinding wheels. These detailed animations will enhance the educational experience of our videos to a level never before seen in any woodworking discipline.

Look for the first video on the Vortex Tool by the end of October.
