Golf Ball in Wood Block
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
Had seen this done by a few other LJers on this site and on YouTube. Decided to try it myself. I had some 2X2 inch Poplar that I cut down to 1 3/4” X 1 3/4”, and cut them to five inches in length. I set up a quick jig on my drill press and used a forstner bit to hog out most of the wood and finished it on my osc. spindle sander. The slots are 1 1/4” wide and 3 1/2” in length. Golf balls are 1 7/8” dia. Already gave a couple away and had one destroyed by a weak minded friend of mine trying to force the ball out, didn't know how it was put in. I tell everyone that there are NO cuts, breaks, glue or anything used to get the ball in. I covered the ball with tape before inserting it in.
