>I'm really partial to John Lea tools. I do use others and I know you will hear a lot of good reports on other hollowing tools because there are a lot of good tools out the. For ease of use and durability and price. I would say check out John Lea Tools. Best of luck, Sean

>I've recently completed a comprehensive opinionated survey of almost all the hollowing tools commercially offered. The originals are published in More Woodturning, but Fred is gracious enough to make them available as free pdfs at the link below. The first section is probably the one you will be most interested in (there will be five sections in total). At the same link, you will also find several full reviews and user tips for several specific hollowing tools.
As for making your own tools, Darrell Feltmate has some web instructions to make a number of hollowing tools. There are several web sources as well but Darrell's are among the best. You can find them here:
