    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.

    Good hollowing tool. I had trouble with it at first because I was using lower RPM speeds on the lathe and trying to cut too aggressively with it which would result in my hollow form ending up off-center in the chuck. It sucks trying to hollow something that isnt perfectly centered and trying to re-center it. My best results with this tool have been taking lighter cuts at the fastest RPM that I can achieve safely. As soon as I feel the tool vibrate in my hand, I back off from cutting with it. Ive found that I can even hollow past the Maximum Overhang sticker at 4.5 and use the full length of the tool shaft (8.5) with ease. The tool is also good for small and delicate spindle work as well.

    This little tool did a great job hollowing Christmas ornaments (bells), just as I had been told.

    This thing just chews through a bowl blank. Used it on both dried and green wood and it makes short work of the inside of a bowl.

    I use it for making boxes. Usual box dimensions are 1 - 3 inches by 4 inch high. Its very strong, stiff, light, and sharp. You wont find a better 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.

    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.

    My wife turns small things on her lathe and kept borrowing my Easy Wood Tools hollower. So, I bought one for her. Thats how much I like this tool.

Easy Wood Tools" line of hollowing chisels provides a convenient, effective method of under-cutting hollow forms and vessels. They are perfect for hollow vessels with a wide body and a narrow opening. The tools are available in three shapes: #1, #2 and #3. The #1 tool is the straightest, and does the preliminary hollowing, followed by the #2 tool, which is more curved to hollow the sides. The #3 tool has the most extreme curve, allowing it to turn the corner and undercut the rim of the vessel. With these patented tools, you"ll achieve professional hollowing results with minimal effort. Each tool is CNC machined from solid stainless steel plate on every face except for the bottom. The compatible replacement carbide number is engraved directly into the tool bar. Available in three sizes: Mid-Size, Full-Size and Pro-Series, which is the largest. Made in USA. Features: Straight neck for preliminary hollowing of turned vessels Tried-and-true round carbide cutters are rotatable and replaceable Ultra-wide tool bar provides excellent stability when in contact with the tool rest, helping to eliminate rotational forces Handles are finished with an 8-step spray process and hand-rubbed lacquer for a shine and beauty that will last Easy Grip handles with two-position grips for comfortable and stability Stainless steel tool bars will never rust; solid copper ferrules add strength and beauty
