Myrtle

Staved vessel using Oregon myrtle and spalted maple with bloodwood top ring.

I'm just started doing staved and segmented turning. Its very challenging.

All comments are appreciated.
I used Bob Fulton's method per Tim Yoder's TV show. I found that using the miter saw w/fixtures was a lot safer and more accurate than a table saw w/fixture. My earlier ones had proportion problems; I'm still working on that.
