That's quite a project. Future family heirloom?

I noticed you didn't stagger the joints. I'd be hesitant not to - have
you done other segmented vessels w/o overlapping the joints? Any

Seem to be some finish on the glued up rings - was this wood salvaged
from an old something or another? Waste not, want not. Hard to tell
from the photos - is it maple?
