Can you give us a bit more info about how you went about 'hogging' out the inside. Hi Berry. With a chisel and mallet I cut a ½" diameter around for the opening. From there I hogged out the depth I wanted using a mortice chisel. there are other ways of hogging out material such as using a drill bit, forstner bit and etc but I love my chisels. Thank you. Quote
