This scan is from my vintage (and well-used) Trader Vic's Book of Food and Drink.

I've always been intrigued by this bowl and I want one. I've come into possession of several large palm logs that I've let sit for about 6 months now.
I think I can carve the basic design and then have chiki add the magical touches to it if possible.

What I want to know is - will it hold water/rum?
How can I assure that it holds water/rum? What tools should I use to get it to it's basic shape and hollowness?
Should I wait some more for the palm to cure?

Help me, experts... and I shall fill this bowl with laughter and good mana for all, not to mention a dozen bottles of rum.

And you shall all taste of it's nectars.
Except Flounder, who I fear.
