What does turning ferrule mean? I'm in the process of building my first set of irons and I see this mentioned all the time.
Thanks

Turning the ferrule is simply making sure that the ferrule has a nice smooth transition at the base of the ferrule to the top of the hosel. Often times if not turned down, there will be a little lip that can be felt. Any clubmaking book, including the one Hireko offers, show various methods to professionally turn down the ferrules.
