Simple Woodturning Tools® Simple Start Turner & Hollower Carbide Woodturning Tool

Tool Description:

The Simple Start Turner & Hollower (SSTH) carbide tool is the tool of choice to be used after a block has been roughed into a cylinder. Both beginners and experts alike appreciate the simplicity with which your project can be quickly turned and hollowed to the desired shape using this tool.

To use the Simple Start Turner & Hollower just follow these 3 simple steps.

  1. Position the tool rest as close to the work as possible so the carbide cutter is at the lathe center line.
  2. Place the tool on the tool rest with the tool shaft parallel with the floor.
  3. While securely holding the tool slowly move the carbide cutter into the work.

    Because of the small tool shaft the woodturning tool should not extend past the tool rest more than 3 inches.

    *Note: This tool can be used in the Simple Hollowing System. Just loosen the two stainless set screws in each handle and remove the tool from the handle.
