I just had to post this one. I generally don't post any of my turnings. My
family generally gets the most of them.

Thanks, Mac. It looks better when you can see the whole thing at once.
That looks like more work than my lazy bones could handle. Nice total
effect though.

I like it, you should post more of your turnings before you give them to
family.

Yeah.. my brother does segmented bowls.. He does one bowl or vase while I'm
doing a dozen or so..
I'd crap out while building all the jigs that he designed for his table saw and
planer..

I just wanna put a chunk of wood on the lathe and see what it wants to be.. ;~]

Very nice Rodger. I have never worked with Yellow Heart but have seen it on
many times and have considered using it on numerous occasions. I am
surprised how much darker it appears on your bowl than in board form with
out a varnish.

Many colors just like most woods, Leon.. Especially purpleheart.. never know
what color it's really going to be..

Here's a couple of yellowheart pieces that have no finish, bit have been buffed
and waxed, which darkens it a bit but brings out the gold highlights..

Boy, Roger, you have the patience of a saint. All those little angled
pieces to cut and glue up. I have a couple books on segmented turning, but
ended up just scratching my head at how much work it is to put rough bowl
together let alone turn it. My hats off to you.. Look great..!

Yeah, that is what I thought the color would be.
