Well *I* couldn't choose which ones to leave out - all too good for
that.

Well done.

Thanks, Lyndell.. I stole the idea from Bill Grumbine's page but being a coward,
I made the rings too big.. I was afraid that if I started smaller, I'd cut the
stem in half.. lol
Knowing a bit more now, I'll try again some day... maybe when a grand kid gets
married..

I love the fiddleback maple on that goblet.. it was sent to me by Wood Chuck, In
N.Y....

Thanks... but even the redwood ones?
They were done for practice and I like them, but don't know about them in an
art show??..

I REALLY like the captured ring one. I just bought a tool for doing
them
http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.a...,330,49233&ap=
1

but haven't had a chance to play with it. I've been cranking out
dibblers... They're almost selling faster than I can make them.

It was an early attempt, Dave... I've learned quite a bit since, especially the
sanding part...
That goblet has about 4 hours of hand sanding the inside of the rings... I know
better now.. *g*

My wife bought me a similar tool from PSI and later, when I started trying to
make stuff with more than one ring, I bought their set of beading tools..
Makes it a little easier to make the beads closer in size..

One of my favorites is this tea light holder... about 3" tall..
I think it's more the ring-to-stem ratio I'm aiming at..

I think they all deserve entry, the difference between 'art' and 'Art'
is so blurred these days, nobody feels able to confidently state what
is and isn't. I saw a video of a dripping tap in San Francisco and they
called that 'Art'. My view was something else.

Put 'em in.

I think that proves that "perception becomes reality"..
Wanna buy a real expensive picture of a soup can?
