Default Arm Braces on Hollowing Tool Handles

I like my arm braces for hollowing. By the way, an arm brace is only
attached by holding it with your hand. The extra control comes from
"resting" the arm in a holder, not strapping it in. The chances of the
force of a catch breaking your grip are a lot better than the forces
breaking your arm.


true enough, but after some rough work with such a tool, I had a very very
sore shoulder and forearm
