> 3 dayGood 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.
