Description

PDF

The "Monster" woodturning hollowing system mounts a boring bar very close to a pivot bearing. The design does not allow gripping the tool beyond the pivot point, so the user has very little leverage during deep hollowing operations. This adapter fits over the pivot point and has enough elevation to support installation of an additional handle without interfering with the tool bearing areas. I used an allen wrench shaft and wood turned handle to complete the design. The allen wrench (or similar metal shaft) provides rigidity.  I printed the part in PETG-rCF08 for strength. Feel free to substitute the filament of your choice.  The resulting handle provides a noticeable increase in control during deep hollowing.
