Making hollow forms has become very popular with many woodturners. Robert Sorby has therefore designed a number of special tools that make the turning of these shapes much easier. The curved hollowing chisels are used for workpieces where the diameter of the hole is (much) smaller than its internal diameter. Straight hollowing tools are used for the deeper parts of these workpieces. Both the straight and the curved hollowing tools are available in several dimensions.
The larger tool (851H) provides a heavier section and has the benefit of a replaceable swivel cutting tip – the General Purpose 851C cutter. The 851H is designed for end grain use on shallow depth projects. The (855H) model uses the same cutting tip but being longer allows for greater reach.
