It's made from a piece of Norflok Pine a turner on my street gave me, the third thing I have turned, after my bowl and candlestick. I used 4 or 5 coats of poly for finish, ans sanded the wood with many many grits. Dimensions are 5 1/4" high, 3.5" diameter

Sorry I can't actually upload the pictures, it isn't working.

Stephen,

That is some nice turning. I have always liked pine for any type of WW and I think you have done pine justice on the lathe with that cup.

Great job and thanks for sharing it with us.

It's not only a nice cup Stephen, but it also defies gravity:rolleyes:

Good job.

Hi Stephen,

Very nice cup for your first one.

Just thought I would bring it up front and right side up, so everyone could appreciate your nice work.

Thanks for showing,

Bill.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>:)

You're doing quite nicely! I'm jealous of those of you who can make nice things like this on your first attempts....Mine looked like firewood! In fact...they ended up as firewood!!!:o
