Easy Wood Tools Mid-Size Easy Hollower #1 (6601) Hollowing Woodturning Tool

excellent tool, great design, easy to use even for beginners

This is a very fine cutting tool. Great for smaller detail work.

I own several Easy Wood Tools and have been very happy with all of them. Just like all the others I have purchased this one is great quality and works well. The fact that the carbide tip stays sharp for a long time and is replaceable when it does get dull really decreases project time - no more sharpening! I also like the fact that they are made in the USA. I would happily recommend this tool to any of my woodturning friends.

Easy Wood has made several hollowing tools that enhance my wood turning capabilities while, at the same time making wood turning easier. The carbide tipped blades are also easy to work with. Great addition to my wood shop.

This tool cuts so well

My new favorite tool. Wish I would have gotten this much sooner before the full size and mini finishers. If you use heavy bowl scrapers for final inside work like me, this one hollower is almost all you need. Use the extra money on cutters.

if your shopping for a hollowing tool this is it,,the cutter is small and that is what you want,,i have the simpliticy and it is nowhere in the same class,,,dont be fooled with others product that has a larger cutter,,,i use this tool not only for hollowing but to provide a finish cutl,,lol,,dont like to sand,,,THIS IS THE BEST,,,,update on this review,,i had a hickory bowl I had roughed out about a year ago waiting for it to dry out,,and today which is the 30th I went out to turn it round,,i used the conventional tools to get it round,,,then I finished up with this tool,,it was amazing what finish I got,,,inside and outside,,set your tool rest about an inch from your work and feed the tool across it slow and you can start sanding at 220 grit,,if your sitting on the fence debating if it worth it,,,i can tell you now it is,,,ohhhh and my cutter is old,,,AMAZING TOOL!!!!

I’m a relative newcomer to wood turning, and I’ve found that carbide tools really speed up the learning process. You don’t need a grinder or jigs, and with care, you can get a very fine finish. I do have a a set of traditional high speed steel tools I picked up used, but my Easy Wood Tools tools are my go-to choice for most uses. This particular tool is great for hollowing out vessels like vases that have a relatively large interior and small mouth. I’ll probably end up buying the other EWT hollowing tools as well.

great tool

Used this to turn travel mugs with, it significantly decreased the amount of time it took me to hollow the inside out. I am a little disappointed however that after one and a half mugs it seems to need to have the cutting edge replaced already hoped it would last a little longer.
