Small hollow form
Ok it started out as a box but lid had a accident.
To give an idea of size the coin is a 50p piece (Just for Sturdee)

I like the lidless box. Pity about the lid.
I also would like to know what hollowing tool you used and how long it took to hollow the box with your tool.
Peter.
PS I adore the measuring coin.

Thank you all, as for the wood it is an unknown I turned this piece so that I could ask on an English forum as I was given a few logs of different trees some of which I know. This is the log it came from

The hole in the top will just take the 50p
I did think of making another lid for it

Yes this is probabily the smallest you would want to hollow with it
It is the crown one Peter http://www.marksanger.co.uk/revolutionholowingtool.html
Have tried it a couple of times as I have other things to make since I got it, I was hoping to use it more everytime I think that I can get and do some turning or toy making something seems to crop up.
Glad you liked the coin

Not sure about the mini Hollower but if you check out the link I gave (see my last post before this one) for the one I have and scroll down there is a little information there but looking at it I would say that it is not much smaller than I have made with the hollow form in this post.
The revolution that I have when the cutter and links are set in a dead straight line they will go through a 20mm hole but if you are to undercut then a bit bigger hole is required.
Hope that all makes sense.

Hi Derek thats certainly competition for Peter's pots lid or no lid and there is NO reason you can't make one still even if different timber. No excuses
Here I had thought that your timber would be floating down stream by now. If your high and dry then you should be busy with chainsaw in hand out gathering timber which has blow down fallen over washed down river.

You are right I could of have made a lid but I did have to make something for someone else maybe next time I will complete one with a lid.
Luckily I live on a hill so no flooding but still get the high winds, not that many trees down that I have heard of may have to contact the local council. But I did get some logs yesterday https://www.woodworkforums.com/f8/more-presents-182125 they are still very wet, wet suit is needed before I rough turn them
