Hollowers for Wood Turning

[PJs]

Thanks very much Paul, your praise means a lot to me! I did work hard to get the radius on the nose as good as I could and to get a cutting edge as far back on the straight side to help with material removal. Again I appreciate that You thought it was perfect.

I ended up snapping the carbide off in the vice because it's brittle. It doesn't always break clean but used duck bills close to the vice jaws to minimize damage. They were a bit jagged and not a right angle like I wanted but long enough to fit without wasting it. I have since purchased a diamond cut off wheel for my Dremel but haven't had a chance to try it yet. I believe it should be able to cut cleanly through or at least score deep enough to get a clean snap.

Thank you again! ~PJ
