Ash hollow form

Yesterday I went back to a tree that was taken down a few years ago behind a pediatric hospital in our neighborhood. At the base the tree was over 35” in diameter and the way it was left in the woods, over 15 feet of the trunk is off the ground, so I should be able to continue cutting away at it for some time. Yesterday I brought home four pieces 18” long by about 11 and 12” square. This finished piece is 10 1/2” in diameter and 6 1/2” tall.
I am very impressed, both by the piece and the speed with which you completed it.
Thanks Paul! With hollow forms made from green wood, I feel like I’m racing the clock to finish before it has a chance to check or move too much.
