Description
Our 1/2″ High Speed Steel Hollowing Tools are great for your hollowing needs up to about 6″ deep. Each tool comes ready to go with a sharp M2 High Speed Steel tip. When worn out, tips are easy to replace, replacement tips can be found here.
Why choose our HSS Hollowing Tools?
- Designed to be used by hand or with the Stabilizer.
- M2 HSS Tips are secured with super glue (no small set screws to loose, clog up or strip out) and easily replaced.
- Narrow profile for superior access and control – allows you to hollow longer before needing to clear out the shavings.
- No need to remove the tip for sharpening. Watch a short video on sharpening here.
- Not all bent tools are created equally. Our Bent and Extreme Bent 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 .
- Designed by a woodturner for woodturners and made in our Fort Collins, Colorado shop.
Why choose HSS? Trent prefers the HSS tools, because they work well in a wide variety of materials. The HSS tip creates a small shaving that is easy to remove (even when you have form with a small opening) because it is a scraping tool.
Overall Length of Tool: 13″ / Approximate Hollowing Depth: 6″
Don’t forget a handle. We recommend a 16″ Handle, like our Blue Super Tool Handle (included in a “Super Set”).

Hello Trent, my new 1/2″ hollowing tools perform exactly as expected, Great! Hollow forms are even more fun to turn now, the bend of the tools and the grip of the handle make turning a breeze, Thank You!

The handles are very well made and the whole set is just solid.

I purchased the 1/2″ set after the 3/4″ set so I could work through smaller openings on small turnings and these work great.

Somehow I thought that the tool would have a more severe bend, although the tool is as it i depicted in your various pictures.

Nice tools, the smaller diameter worked great in my small hollow forms I’ve been making of late. The order arrived faster than I expected.
