    Default segmented oak platter

    This is a segmented oak platter made for the wedding of the daughter from my sister-in-law.
    Had to work hard to get it done, tomorrow is the wedding, so just in time.
    This platter has a diameter of 305mm, almost the maximum diameter I can handle on my lathe. As usual finished with blanc transparent acrylic stain decoration on waterbase.
    Comments or critique are welcome.
    Cheers, Ad

    Very nice mathematics, joinery and turning, Ad. If you don't mind me asking, how did you cut & join the rounded centre section?
