My First attempts at Segmented turning
 

Well I just finished updating my website with pictures of my first attempts
at segmented turning. ( I'm hooked on it so far :D)
Any Comments are welcome

Real nice! Tom

You may want to stagger the joints on each segment ring for strength.
Essentially the same as a brick wall. Each ring should be offset by 1/2
segment so that the joints don't line up vertically. End grain joints
are very weak. Having them run the entire vertical length makes for
the very real possibility that the piece will self destruct over time
and almost certainly if dropped.

Ty for the comments and suggestions
