Description
The PMA Neck Turning Tool is the best neck turner available today. You know why you need or want to neck turn, but with so many different models on the market, which do you choose? The factors determining your choice of neck turning tools essentially boils down to three key demands; ease and repeatability of adjustment, comfort of use and cut finish. This tool absolutely satisfies these demands.
Our neck turning tool does not use a course or fine drive screw to move the cutter towards or away from the mandrel. We don’t utilize an unnecessary micrometer or dial indicator. Nor do we rotate the mandrel on an eccentric which changes the center of the cut and has inconsistent adjustment. Our Model A neck turning tool simply adjusts by moving the mandrel toward or away from the stationary cutter with VERY minimal backlash. The Model A utilizes a super-fine 80TPI drive screw giving you .0002” adjustment between each mark, the marks have ample space between them allowing you to make adjustments as fine as .0001”. Tool does not include mandrel.

great neck turning tool
Very easy to use. Large and robust, fits well in your hand and provides great leverage vs the K&M turner. Easy to adjust and lock.

This one works!
I have used other neck turning tools with mixed results. The PMA tool was easy to set up, and repeatable with every case turned (250 the day I got it). The little things like having a cutter that is relieved so the case can turn properly on the mandrel makes a huge difference in producing results.

Best Neck Turning Tool - Period!
I have used everybody's neck turning tool over the years. So when this idea came up, I thought, yeah right. Do not worry, do not hesitate, just buy this tool and be done. Extremely easy to adjust and scary accurate. Quality tooling and very ergonomic. I will admit that I like to use the K&M arbor, to cut inside and outside in one pass. Guess what? They offer a conversion unit to be able to still use my favorite arbor. Just buy this and be done!
