Here is the progress I've made so far on the captured hollowing system I'm building. It uses a 1" bar attached to an old tablesaw fence to keep the bar from rotating. The capture part is made from a couple of wall shelf supports mounted on a satellite dish base.
The capture support works real well, but I'm in the process of making a new boring bar shaped like a "D" of of 1" bar to replace the tablesaw fence. It works on small hollow forms but I think I need a wider "D" to keep it from rotating on a "big catch". I know several Creekers are in the process of thinking and/or building a system so I wanted to share my progress so far. I have searched all of the posts on the "Creek" and elsewhere and want to thank all of you who have gone before me with your systems.
