Western Red Cedar Burl Hollow Form

I'm impressed you kept it together. Makes for a very appealing look when accomplished.

What did you use to hollow such soft wood?

I used a long handled Simon Hope hollowing tool freehand with a carbide cutter. I actually ended up having to hand sand the interior for a gruelling period of time to get a good finish. The tool can leave a pretty good finish on its own alot of the time but the wood was unsound in alot of areas.
