Very nice work. I like the pattern you have made with the contrasting timbers.
How long did it take to assemble the segments before you began turning it?
Congratulations on a fine piece of artwork and thank you for posting it!!

Thank you Steck, it takes me four days before I was ready for turning, I always take my time for segmented turnings.

AD, you are coming up with some interesting designs:2tsup: I particularly like this one with the circles created by the darker dowels(I assume they are dowels)

We always look forward to seeing what you are up to next!


Cheers,

Chipman:)

Ed, Glitsa is in fact a blanc transparent floorlacquer, but it's also great stuff for protection of furniture and table tops. In the begin when I started with woodturning I used Danish oil, but saw when people touched many time a piece of work, ugly spots appears on the surface, acid on your hands are responsable for that.
I only make useful stuff like table lamps, fruitdishes, serve platters, bowls, so people touch it many times.
I don't have that problem with using Glitsa, I know there are better products available, but Glitsa works well for me.
Thanks for your attention. Ad :)
