I want to put my washing line in the tree stump. Don't want to dig up lawn and concrete in pole, and no base which you put into the earth has been capable of holding up the rotary washing line (obv knocked about by the wind, using clothes as sails).
This means cutting a vertical hole in the stump.
Using a holesaw for the above won't work well, because it won't go deep enough - the barrel of the drill will get in the way before I even get close. Making an even bigger hole to fit the barrel of the drill in would obv defeat purpose, as the pole needs to be snug to prevent it being lifted out, or moving around and cracking the wood.
As far as I can see, even if there is a holesaw long enough, there would be no way to remove the cylinder of wood that would be cut out - the 'face' of the cylinder t would still be attached, with no way I can get at it.
Is there a way I can make this hole?
