Good hollowing tool.
« on: October 03, 2014, 09:39:00 AM »
Hi all.
I am in need of a good hollowing tool and thinking seriously about the Rolly Munro. Does anyone have one and can you tell me how small a hole you can get it through and still work under the shoulder ?
Regards
Graham
I have learnt the first rule of woodturning.
The internal diameter should never exceed the external width.
Nor the internal depth, the external height.
Does that make me an expert now ?

To answer my own question..... The bumph says to drill a 30mm hole which suits me fine so I went and brought one  :)

It's alright until you argue with yourself - and loose!
