Our 1/2″ Carbide Hollowing Tools are great for your hollowing needs up to about 6″ deep. Each tool comes ready to go with a carbide tip. When worn out, tips are easy to replace, replacement tips can be found here.

A little bit about our Hollowing Tools: Our hollowing tools were designed by a woodturner for woodturners, not by a manufacturer who has never used a lathe before. The narrow profile of the tool near the tip provides superior clearance and control. This also allows you to hollow longer before needing to clear out the shavings, speeding up the process. Our hollowing tools do not have swivel tips to get in the way, and tips are easily replaced. Not all bent tools are created equally. Our bent hollowing tools are designed so that the cutter is located on center with the shaft of the tool. This eliminates the rotary torque often associated with the hollowing process as long as you keep the tool rest behind the bent part of the tool. Trent uses these tools to teach the hollowing process to hundreds of students each year.  Each tool is made by us in Fort Collins, Colorado USA.

These Carbide Hollowing Tools use a Hunter #1 carbide cutter.  Cutter and torx wrench included.

Overall Length of Tool: 13″ / Approximate Hollowing Depth: 6″

    I originally purchased the 5/8″ hollowing tools when I bought Trent’s Stabilizer system. I really like it but I have found that they are a little large for getting into most of the hollow vessels I make, so I recently purchased the 1/2″ set. They work great. I went with the carbide tipped set and am very pleased with the way they cut. In addition to the 1/2″ set of hollowing tools, I purchased a 1/2″ bent radius scrapper to smooth out the inside. It works great at smoothing out the inside of vessels. I am very pleased with all the Trent Bosch tools I have purchased.

    The Trent Bosch carbide hollowing tools are the best of breed. The cup carbide cutters used by Trent really CUT the wood. The flat carbide cutters on cheap Chinese and expensive US made carbide tools are just scrappers. They make a mess.
