I have often wondered how they do these, any ideas, it's not normal turning is it?:nooidea:

Thyey use an angle grinder and special carborundum disks to gradually remove and shape the inside of the burl often resting the burl on small car tyres to hold them in position I think Woody is accomplished in making them as well.
