Step 3Shaping the Pod.
Now the pod has a flat bottom to sit on. You can cut off some of the top end of the pod to make it more proportionate to the egg shape you are aiming for. Using a coarse grit (40+/-) I shaved off the soft outer material until I get to the inner core. You can remove more outer material with a band saw to save time, but be careful, as the pod has a lot of holes and the blade can shift.
Once you get close to your desired shape, use a higher grit (80) to remove less material and start shaping to your final size.

That seed pod is one of the most horrifying things I have ever seen in my life. I don't know how you could stand to be in the same room with it. Great job on the project overall, but the structure of that thing is like something straight out of a nightmare.
