A funny quote from my wife

"In your never ending desire to purchase every turning tool known to mankind I see you found some new ones." Little does she know there are LOTS left to buy. Good thing I make enough money selling blanks to feed tool purchases.:ciggrin:

I attended a program where Mike of Hunter Tools did a demo. The set of 3 are intended for mini hollow forms. 3/8" shaft with a 6mm cutter. I intend to use them to make hollow Christmas ornaments.

The large tool is 5/8" shaft with 10mm cutter. This is called full swan neck tool reverse rotation. Its sometimes easier for me to hollow with the lathe spinning in reverse.

I guess with a round cutter sharp in every direction it will be more versatile and effective. Looks like a nightmare to conceive and shape by the makers. Looking for your efforts with this set mate.

A very nice set of tools. Just hope the wife does not read this forum or you could be in trouble:winking:
