Lipped cup?
I am trying to make a lipped cup, kinda like the one shown in the third
photo on this page: http://www.chicagopoint.com/takiretrobakelite.html I can clear to the inside diameter of the lip with a forstner bit I imagine, but what kind of tool would I need to increase the inside diameter of the cup below the lip? A hollowing tool of some kind? How do I get a nice clean edge at the base of the lip? |

At least as it appears on my monitor, the cup has straight sides, and appears to haver straight inside sides except for a slight widening at the top. I'm not clear from your description how you're seeing it. -- Andy Barss |

Lipped cup?
Sorry, I was not clear. Cups like this have a lip on the inside, below
which the cup is lined (the one in the picture is lined with cork, I have seen others with leather lining). I tried an ASCII drawing, but it was a mess. Picture everything below the lip (unstained) being recessed slightly - the inside diameter of the cup increases below the lip. Hope that helps. |

Sounds the job for a tool like http://www.crownhandtools.ltd.uk/pro...ngscrapers.asp Thy do that kind of work well. Only thing they really do, though. |

A hollowing tool of some kind? How do I get a nice clean edge at the base of the lip? What have you got already? It's not much of a lip, and the cup opening is probably big enough to just do it with a pointed scraper or a spindle gouge. I've done a lot of stuff with signifigantly more of a lip than that with regular straight scrapers and gouges. Especially if you're lining the inside, it'd imagine it wouldn't be too tough to get a clean enough edge with just about anything you've got. Now if you're just looking to get another tool, that's another story... |

Lipped cup?
Well, I have a total of two turning tools at the moment - a spindle
gouge and a parting tool. I need more tools, and I was looking for the best tool for this particular job. But if I can get a good result from a different tool that would be more versatile, than that would be good as well. |
