How and where is it made?
The entire Simple Hollowing System is made by Harrison Specialties in the Land of 10,000 lakes, Minnesota. All components are precision machined on an American made Haas CNC milling machine.

With the laser always showing exactly where the cutter is inside your hollow form or bowl, all the stress and fear of catches is eliminated. Now precise wall thickness is simple to achieve. For example if you what a 1/4" wall thickness simply set the laser light to shine 1/4" away from the cutter. Then hollow out your vessel until the laser light just falls off the outside of the vessel and you will have a 1/4" wall thickness. 

• Made in America in Ramsey, Minnesota.
• This fully articulating hollowing system will fit virtually any lathe with split ways, even mini lathes. 
• Note: If you own a Nova DVR be sure to let us know and we will ship a mounting base clamp specifically for that lathe. 
• This system can be used to turn both the inside and outside of a project. That makes it ideal for turners who must turn while seated or who may have other physical limitations making it difficult to hold tools.
• All Full Size Simple Woodturning Tools® can be used in the system or any other tool with a half inch tang.
• This system will also accept 3/8" (mid size) tools with the addition of the SHS Bushing found here: SHS BUSHING
