Description:

The Munro Tool has been designed around a robust, inexpensive and very hard wearing cutting tip. The tip is up to ten times less expensive to replace than some cutters on the market. The short depth gauge allows the tool shaft to orientate at sharper angles giving better access to the inside shoulder of hollow forms. The tool has only one screw which only needs to be slackened to make adjustments to the depth gauge. Unlike with other hollowing tools, the shavings exit upwards giving the turner a clear view when monitoring the cutting progress. This is useful when making very fine cuts. The tool comes with long & short cast stainless steel links, allowing for hollowing around corners and under shoulders of hollow forms. The aluminium handle is light, and gives excellent support when hollowing a very deep vessel, while leaving the user the option of adding ballast if required. The lightness of the handle means the tool is a dream to use on finer cuts where sensitivity is desirable. The 16 mm diameter shaft has an effective length of 410 mm. The cutters are easy to sharpen with the sharpening jig supplied. The full set includes the handle, cutterhead, shaft, short link, long link, 3 cutters and the sharpening jig.
