Didgeridoo making-instruction with bore-through-technic
Step 5, shaping

	I work further with an other log, Marple, because the Oak-log has a wood - artefakt and I put it aside fore a while. This Marple has an s-bend, so it was only possible to bore through, with a third hole. You can see it in the middle of the pic. It was the first time that I done it this way, it worked.                               In the bell is a knot-hole, depending of the sound, I leave it open.
	View into the bell, the light is in the third hole. The bell will be ground.
	The bark will be removed ...
	With a Stanley-rasp the wallthickness is decreesed slightly. It is not that fast as with a grinding-machine but the sensitivity with hand-tools is a lot better. It is quite possible with a machine-driven tool, that you come through the wall.
	Slightly the wallthickness is decreased to ca. 1,5 cm. Of course you cant measure it but with light knocks you get a feeling where it is relativly thin or thick.
	View into the mouthhole. It will be ground also with a cylindrical grinding head.
