That's neat. I only use right-handed tools 99% of the time. It can make a lot of sense to use a left handed tool if you're single point threading on a manual lathe. The patron saint of machining tricks, Quinn from Blondihacks, has some very good tutorials on the subject.

Whoops wrong video, but it's excellent so I'm leaving it.

She is great isn’t she? I finally bought a lathe and have been watching her videos, follow her instructions, rewatch etc.
