Ahh, that's the Johnston/Basham hollowing tool I made. I need to make 
another one, perhaps more than one if anyone's interested.

John, your vase has a nice classic eggish shape, I think you nailed it 
from what I can see. Hope you get it done without incedent!

Tools used to hollow were the John Jordan cutter used first then a similar tool with a wider cutter I purchased from Ken Grunke to clean up the interior and arrive at my intended wall thickness.  The depth indicator on the Jordan tool is shop built (evident from the very rough welding on it.)
