Question about the Woodcut Bowlsaver

Hey All; I just bought a Woodcut Bowlsaver at the woodworking show here in KC and I have a question about the proper way to set the depth of cut. It came with the layouts for this nifty little jig that you can use (the video shows how), but what if your blanks are deeper than the fixed template? It says in the video that you can get bowls from stock up to 6" deep, but I can't figure out how. Anyone else have experience with this system? I searched the rec and found nothing and the woodcut site is apparently in the middle of an upgrade. Any help would be appreciated.

thanks....Alex

Good point. The cut out gauges will be to small for blanks over 6" deep. Dont worry bring the saver as close as you can to the blank and take out the max depth possible. (check it with a ruler first) eg: measure from the center of the pivot bolt to the outside of the cutting tip of the blade this will be the maximum depth say 5-1/4"

One of the benifits with the system is the ability to measure accuratly the bowl before you core it out. I will be happy to answer any questions I can.

PS: the new CD video is available to anybody on request

Thanks, Ken. I thought that would be the case, but I wanted to be sure.
