Hunter Tool Company # 1 Taper
Tools
Designed by Mark St. Leger,
noted box maker, and are to be used on vessel’s 3” tall max and smaller. These tools can be used to rough out hollow
forms, but the best use is for finishing and final form shaping as shown on the
illustration. The # 1 Straight tool will
clean up the bottom, the # 1 Hook Tool will will clean up the sides and then
the hardest cut for any turner is to clean up the shoulder which the # 1
Shoulder or Back tool is designed to reach.

The components or accessaries
for the # 1 Taper Tools are the same for the # 1 Cutters. These tools have a 3/8” round
shank and require
handles turned by the end user.
Application hint … start the cut at the 7:30
on the clock angle and once engaged rotate the cutter to 8:30 to 8:45 on the
clock angle.
