Hi all,
Here's a maple form 4.5" tall by 3" wide with 1" center hole. I was so intent on parting it off to see how it felt that I rushed the final steps and didn't complete the sanding. Hence this one stays with me :)
I was hoping for a .75" hole but couldn't do it on this first try in deep hollowing. Carelessness when inserting the tool caused me to have to open it up to just under an inch to get rid of the marks.
I am happy at how the inside came out, I did a little measuring but relied mostly on the sound to keep the sides close to the same thickness which is about 3/16th.
