Hello all,
Just wondreing if anyone could offer any tips on using the Ellsworth hollowing tools? I seem to be doing alright with the straight tool but when I use the one for hollowing the sides, it seems to beat me up and I am getting catches. I was able to turn a few decent small pieces yesterday but I got a nasty catch today that cracked my piece in half. Luckily, it was a small piece and I was standing to the side so I'm fine in that regard. I have his book and that doesn't seem to cover it very well (although it's a great book!
