AU HOLLOWERS (12mm, 10mm, 8mm, 6mm)

These are my AU hollowers which have a cupped cutter that has been fitted to the bar, at the correct angle and the bar has been shaped to allow the bevel of the AU cutter to be used.  This makes the tool the closest you can get to a carbide bowl gouge. It is used exactly the same way, you can push cut, pull cut and shear cut, all floating the bevel just the same as using a traditional bowl gouge. These tools can totally replace what is known as a bottom feed bowl gouge. All with the added bonus of no sharpening needed. I can't say how many bowls before you would replace the cutter, but when I wear one out, I will let you know. The 6mm is often described as being very aggresive, this is only when the tool is not being used correctly. It can be as delicate or as aggresive as you need it to be for the job you are doing. With all the chisels that use an AU cutter, you must always work off the tip and never used to scrape. Just because you will see many many Turners on YouTube using these chisels to pull up the side of pieces, does not make it right. Be a Shepherd not a sheep. Lead don't follow.

These chisels have a14 inch handle and 9 inch 12mm round bar.
