Gorgeous.

I have learnt the first rule of woodturning.
The internal diameter should never exceed the external width.
Nor the internal depth, the external height.
Does that make me an expert now ?

Two equally fine pieces, Woody. What is their destiny? I can imaging them sat on an alter-table somewhere.

Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.

Vic, you've nailed these two just perfectly, if I'd to choice the lower one is marginally the better, only for the flow of the cup design.

Woody,

I really like this, reminds me of the What-you-ma-call-it's you posted on the forum when you joined us a couple of years back.
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!

These are two little beauties Woody. Can't make my mind up which I like the best so will just have both of them.
