BOWL CORING

BOWL CORING WITH WOODCUT TOOLS

Safe, solid and simple to use.

For more than 30 years, Woodcut Tools has been developing bowl coring systems that help woodturners create more bowls from every piece of timber.

From the Bowlsaver Original through to today's Bowlsaver Max4, our coring systems have continued to evolve through years of development, testing and feedback from woodturners around the world.

Now, the Bowlsaver is entering its next chapter.

Following the success of the Bowlsaver Max4, we are retiring the Bowlsaver Original and bringing our bowl coring range together around the Max4 system.

The Bowlsaver Max4 is now available in two configurations. Start with the Max4 Starter, supplied with the Small and Large blades, or add the Max blade for the complete three-blade Max4 system.

One Max4 platform, with the flexibility to choose the coring capacity that's right for you.

The Evolution of the Woodcut Bowlsaver

In the 1980s, bowl coring was becoming increasingly popular as woodturners looked for ways to save valuable timber and produce multiple bowls from a single blank.

Woodcut Tools founder Ken Port believed there was an opportunity to develop a coring system that was simpler to use, safer and more reliable. Over several years, Ken experimented with different designs, working closely with fellow woodturners to test and refine the concept.

After nearly five years of development, and in collaboration with New Zealand turner and designer Errol Udy, the Woodcut Bowlsaver Original was launched in 1995.

It went on to become one of Woodcut Tools' most successful and recognised products, helping woodturners around the world turn more bowls and create fewer shavings.

As bowl turning evolved and turners began working with larger and deeper blanks, we continued to develop and refine the Bowlsaver. Decades of experience, together with feedback from woodturners around the world, ultimately led to the development of the Bowlsaver Max4.

The Max4 has now established itself as the next generation of the Woodcut Bowlsaver. With the introduction of the Max4 Starter, woodturners can access the Max4 platform without needing the largest Max blade, while retaining the option to add it at any time.

For this reason, the time has come to retire the Bowlsaver Original and bring our bowl coring range together around the Max4 platform.
