Okay, I currently have a 3/4" oval skew that I'm getting better with, but I still seem to snag the heel. It was recommended to me by several turners that I might benefit from a wider skew as the heel is farther away from the typical contact point. With that, I was thinking a 1 1/4" or a 1 3/8" skew. I am stuck between a flat sided skew or an oval one. Also, I have several Sorby tools, but any "quality" HSS made from good steel will work for me. So, I'm looking for some input for you'all...
1. Do you prefer oval or flat sided skews? Why?
2. What are some good online sources of reasonably priced skews?
