Deep hollowing into end grain can be a difficult task using a hand held tool. When extending the tool further off the tool rest, the leverage can make it very difficult to control the tool, get a good finish and sometimes results with a dangerous catch. With this system, developed by professional woodturner Lyle Jamieson , the catches and lack of control associated with hollowing deep forms will be kept to a minimum. The handle, captured by the Secondary Tool rest, keeps the tool steady while the laser attachment allows for a precise wall thickness to be easily achieved.
