Hi Chuck. Wouldn't mind a picture looking from underneath?.

This is the big one artful. Not the best pic but it give you an idea, fairly thin walls. The ash is harder to hollow than the LVL

What type of holding chuck did you use to hollow it out?.
Not planning to make any, just wondering.

Brave and stupid all I had was 45mm spigot jaws. I have since bought some powergrip jaws for next time.

I think in this case the LVL looks better.

Do you know how they have been holding up?

Made a few a year ago and they have rung to say they have fallen apart. I made a suggestion about vent holes but they didn't want to do it!
We used to make simular fittings in pine and that was in 1993
