African Mahogany & Walnut

[Curt Fuller]

This segmenting stuff is for people a lot smarter than me! This is a small HF, 6" wide by 4.5" tall, made from African Mahogany with a shot of Walnut for design. After doing this I'm even more impressed by those fancy designs some of the segmenters do.

[Pete Jordan]

Very cool Curt!

They are a lot smarter than me too! I would like to try it but the thought of glueing up all those pieces and the chance it would blow up scares me.

[David Christopher]

Curt, that is a beautiful HF, I think it looks as good as the smart guys LOL

[Bernie Weishapl]

That is a beauty Curt. Really like the wood combo.

[alex carey]

By the looks of that it seems you might be smarter than you think. Nice job, I love the top.

[Richard Madison]

That's a cool piece Curt. Did you hollow it all through that one teeny opening? Does not take any smarts, just very durable thumbs and fingers to press all those little pieces together. Am less than half way into building a piece with 1,400+ segments and my digits are already sore and trying to convince me to just make monolithic pencil cups. I think you did good, and probably should do another one.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Curt - you don't given yourself enough credit! Very nice hollow form! Really like the simple, yet effective design! Also like the really small neck and opening! Don't know if it is the color of the piece, the form or a combination of the two, but it sure is inviting! Thanks for sharing!

[Bill Bolen]

Well sir...you are one of those smart segmenters now! Beautiful piece for a first or 101 st...Bill...

[Brian Brown]

Dunno Curt, Looks like you did just fine on this one. Looking forward to number 2.

[Don Eddard]

Looks real nice to me. The simple pattern doesn't detract from the great form. Seems a certain amount of segmented work emphasizes the patterns and the number of pieces, to the detriment of the form.

[Jeff Nicol]

Curt, You are way ahead of the curve on the segmented world than I am! I am not sure that my mind would still function after the fact! The shape and the woods you chose compliment each other wonderfully! The small neck gives is an elegant charm!

It will only get better!

Jeff

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Curt,

It looks good to my old eyes!

[Jim Kountz]

I think you can include yourself in the smart guy category after this one, looks great!!

[Danny Thompson]

Simply beautiful, Kurt.

[Scott Lux]

I think you did quite well. Smartly done!
