Striking piece Flaco! Very nice

Out of curiosity, how thick did you leave the roughed piece for something that size?????

[WillyInBris]

Very nice indeed,

Can you share with me the makeup of the soup you used?

Thanks Willy

Most good, Flaco. I like the wee step at the rim as an accent. How large is the inside diameter? Seems a funny place to store a spare chainsaw chain. You don't use it freehand, do you?

............. Seems a funny place to store a spare chainsaw chain. ...........

And I thought I was the only mug that noticed things like that! I was thinking maybe some really serious texturing

[Flaco]

Thanks guys,
The roughed piece was about 40mm till it dried. Using the soap solution ( 50% water 50% dish washing detergent ) eliminates chackig and movment completely .
Joe , dont undrstand your question the vesele is now 5mm wall thikness all over.Except for the wee step at the rim (8mm ) and the base with the recess (10mm) the max diamter is 480mm th hight is 170mm the opening is 23 mm .

Sorry, Flaco. I guess I didn't express my question very well. I thought the height at the outside was too short to reach all the way to 470mm inside diameter; apparently high enough as you imply.

.. I guess I didn't express my question very well. ..

He may not have understood the question about the chain saw chain being used freehand.

[Evan Pavlidis]

That's a gem Flaco...well done

[Flaco]

He may not have understood the question about the chain saw chain being used freehand.

Not responding dosnt mean not understanding Cliff It's just that there is no serious explanation for the location of the spare chain and .... NO !! I do not use the chain freehand any more. Last time I did it, my chain saw was so offended ...it did not speak to me for a week !!
