AndrewB Posted June 30, 2020 Report Posted June 30, 2020 I mean honestly guys should a hollowing tool handle be this big. Is it me or is this company over compensating for something??? FlGatorwood 1 Quote
Gerald Posted June 30, 2020 Report Posted June 30, 2020 I do not know about this company , but do not care for the design of this tool. Now as to the question hollowing exerts a lot of torque and the long handle is needed to control that. I think the formula for handle is handle is either two or three times the length of the tool.

lew Posted June 30, 2020 Report Posted June 30, 2020 Similar dimensions to the Easy Wood Tools Pro #3 Hollower. The flat bar makes it a little easier to control than hand held hollowers with round bars. Not sure if the "geometric shaped" neck will permit interior access and easily as the "swan neck shaped" versions. FlGatorwood 1 Quote
AndrewB Posted June 30, 2020 Author Report Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) Yea even the round bars have a flat bottom on them for the square diamond and round cutter tips. But the handles are considerably shorter. In the long run I may just wind up ordering myself a set of the easy wood tools as well just to see if I can see and do a comparison difference on them.

Gunny Posted June 30, 2020 Report Posted June 30, 2020 I have the Easy wood hollower for a midi lathe. Can't give a good review as I have only used 2 times. But it seems to work well. Bit of a learning curve. I practiced on some scrap 1st. FlGatorwood 1 Quote
