Hi All, It's been a while since I posted something. Here's a Open Segment Bowl I've just finished, the first 3 rings were the hardest to glue up, after that it was smooth sailing. the wood used are, Teak= Box and Red Gum, finish is Polyurethane Satin, 241 pieces of wood went in to build it, Size is 180x50xmm
Cheers Tony.:)

Tony a nice turned piece showing the perspective that has been applied with a range of different woods available to you.
The time spent on producing this means that it must be a show piece to kept for surely your own delight.

Thank you Johnno, As you might have guessed I do this as a hobby, so most of my turnings end up as gifts to friends and Family,
Cheers Tony. :)

Hi Tony.
I admire your patience to glue all those bits together. I could not do it as I am still a young man (75) in a hurry.
Well done.
