hey, what about turning your yak upside down, taking your end form,cutting off say the 2 or 3 inches for how long you want the end pour(prob a little less and slant it), attaching a long handle to it, and covering the leading say 2 or 3 inches on the bottom(now the top w/ the yak upside down)w/ heavy sandpaper and really jerking it back and forth! maybe a little form to stop the rotation.

when the ctrs done remove that hvy sandpaper, and add sandpaperd wedges on the side.

would take time, but couldn't really go wrong because that's the shape you built the yak bow to, huh???

I kinda like this one conceptually, do you think you could even carefully put in a leading blade or chisel?? or epocy the end and dipp in the sand.

hehehe
