This is my first Segmented Cookie Dish. Walnut and Maple.
9 1/2" finished diameter turned on a lathe with a swing of 10".


I decided to oil it:

Excellent! IIRC, your first set of photos did not show the profile. I do
like it!


Thanks! It's the 7th thing I've turned. 8th if you include the silly
little cherry bell with clapper that is now on the Christmas tree.

I picked up some nicely figured Tiger Maple, Flamed Makore, and
Movinge veneers today. Over 63 square feet for $20. It seemed like a
good deal - but I've never heard of the last two. Was looking for
some contrasting but complementary wood for details on a segmented
vessel, but after looking more closely, I hate to waste the veneers on
a lowly pinstripe. :-\ I should just get some birch and dye it.

Ah, well...
