G'Day & Welcome to a top forum "Mick".
There are a stack of members in Brisbane & S.E. Queensland plus the rest of the world.....
You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
Make sure you show off your handiwork as everyone loves a photo, especially WIP [Work In Progress] photos with build notes.
You certainly have one beautiful piece of timber there.
May I suggest that you add a new thread in the general section of the forum to gain a wider audience and thus more replies to your question.
Enjoy the forum.
Enjoy your woodwork......
Cheers crowie

Hey - I would look at a 4 point harness instead of drilling into it.
i.e. hooks on 4 corners going back to a central (but offset vertically higher) chain on the back. This will save you from drilling into the piece, and of the 4 hooks I would make 3 smaller, maybe with a black cover to conceal, then the bottom right one make bigger and have exposed to make it look like a fish hook and that you "caught" it.

How does the back look?
If you have a high enough ceiling With a piece like that I'd consider hanging it i the middle of a space and suspending it from ion from the top edge.
