Description
The Woodcut Pro-Forme Bent Tool with Cutter Head is designed for cutting under the shoulder of the hollow form.​ Use this tool with a handle that accepts a 5/8″ shaft. Suggest to use either the Modular Woodturning Tool Handle or the Woodcut Prom-Forme 20″ Handle, each sold separately.
“Produce shavings, not dust!”
- EASY TO USE, NO NEED TO ADJUST CUTTERS – Unlike other tools you don’t need to keep adjusting the cutter. The cutter is hardened M2 high speed steel that is open on one side to prevent clogging, which is a common problem with other end grain/hollowing tools. It also cuts at much slower speeds eg. 500 rpm, minimizing secondary shavings. The adjustable safety gauge determines the depth of cut and prevents dig-ins.
- SIMPLE TO SHARPEN – Easiest hollowing tool to sharpen. Simply use a diamond file, such as the Woodcut Tools Credit Card Diamond Hone. If required the cutter is also replaceable to ensure a long working life from these tools.
- CROSS AND END GRAIN – Designed for cross and end grain scenarios as well as dry and green wood. Hollow forms up to 13″ deep, and even deeper in conjunction with the Woodcut Irons Tool Rest.
- USER GUIDES & VIDEOS SUPPLIED – An extensive user guide booklet is included in the box with your Pro-Forme Hollowing Tool. User guide and demonstration videos available on our You Tube channel.
The Woodcut Pro-Forme Bent tool is designed to hollow both side and end grain on green or dry wood. However, for an optimal hollowing experience, Woodcut Tools recommends the cutter is regularly sharpened and green wood is used. For guidelines on how to sharpen the cutter please refer to page 6 of the User Manual or video below.
All Pro-Forme tools feature a heavy duty 5/8″ diameter shaft that will reach up to 10″ over the tool rest.
