[crw-talk] Hook Tool

[John & Donna Griffiths]

Members,

A few days ago I discussed using a hook tool for end grain hollowing, 
Aaron G added a safety comment, use for end grain only.  Very important.

I need to add another safety note:  Mount your log with a face plate not 
a chuck.  Way too many forces are applied to the wood, it will go flying 
if chucked.  Once it is hollowed you might turn a tenon and chuck it for 
finishing work, but when you are doing the hogging out, face plate mount 
only.

Thanks for your attention, keep those chips flying safely,  John
