Hi folks,
So here is todays effort, hopefully not my magnum opus, but at least its not firewood! Next time i would do a different design and not put the band around the outside, rhis would allod me to make it thinner.
It is oak, finished diameter is 240mm and 120mm high. Finished with one coat of sanding sealer, Yorkshire grit and paste wax.
Not a single catch this time! Think that has something to do with me regrinding my gouge, gerring rid of the swept back wings.
I am slightly annoyed with myself for using CA glue to fill endgrain tear out that I just couldn't shift on the outside. It doesn't look great.
On the inside, there are two parts where the finish is streaky, I don't know if it has something to do with the absorption into the wood at that point/differing wood density?! Any thoughts from those more experienced?
Here are some pics
