Munro Hollower Demo
Click here for the PDF demo handout.
The Munro Hollower2 is a great tool for making vases and hollow forms.
This demo shows how I hollow a bowl and vase with the Munro Hollower 2. I cover lots of tips and tricks that will allow you to hit the ground running and quickly learn to love the Munro Hollower 2.
I start by hollowing a bowl with a deeply under cut rim. This allows me to show how the hollower cuts on the outside of a bowl where you can see it. Then I go inside the bowl and under cut the rim with the hollower. If time permits, I then hollow the inside of a big mouth vase.
Updated 9/4/2020: I will still do this demo however for your club or symposium. However, I personally have moved on beyond the Munro Hollower.
I now do most of my hollowing with a Trent Bosch “3/4″ Hollowing Tool Stabilizer” with a Bosch “3/4″ Carbide Straight Hollowing Tool” and a “Trent Bosch Visualizer” TV rig. I really love my Munro Hollower. However, the Bosch hollowing tool at $90 is a LOT CHEAPER than a Munro Hollower2 at $370. Thus, the Bosch hollowing tool is a better option for most people.
I also have a newer “Carl’s TV Hollowing Rig” blog entry. Click here for that blog entry.
Antique Candlestick Demo
Click here for the PDF demo handout.
Turning new Antique Candlesticks is a great way to improve your spindle turning skills and use up scraps of wood.
I call them “antiques” because I use up old scraps of wood with cracks and knots. Then I use Milk Paint to give them that antique look and feel.
Please contact me if you would like me to do this demo for your club or symposium.
