the shape is due to the peice having rot in it once i turn away the rot this is basicly the shape that was left i just refinded it a bit.
i mean it was all my idea:U.
i made a chisel to make hollowing easyer once i had finished and new what i needed.

Well done, Carl. Is it hollowed all from the opening, or is it two pieces? Looks right good, either way.
