Lyle Jamieson Hollowing Rig

[Chris Burgess]

I just purchaced a use Lyle Jamison Hollowing rig and was wondering if anyone had his video (Hollow Forms the Easy Way) that explains the set up. If so, would you be interested in selling or loaning it to me? If on loan I will reimburse the cost of shipping.

Also, does anyone have experience with this set up? It was a good deal so I jumped before I looked. Got the original set up w/ 2 additional bars and cutters and the laser for $200. Just need to build a backrest when it arrives.

Chris....what kind of a lathe do you have?

[Chris Burgess]

Its an old Toolkraft from the '60s. Had a 10.5" swing and 36" bed. Saving for an upgrade.....someday.

Do you need a rear captured tool rest for you Jamieson?

If so PM me.

Chris, PM me your address and I'll send you my Jamieson DVD.
I got mine back in Feb and I really like it (not having used any of the other systems, can't say how it compares). The only thing that I might consider a drawback is that you can't hollow thru a tiny hole (although it's not really a big deal for me). About 1 1/4" is the smallest I've been able to do and that is for a fairly straight hf, the bigger the shoulder the more room you need to manuver.

Thanks Kathy. PM on its way.
