Nice, I like the ring on top. That's my next shape to try.

[Barry Stratton]

Something tells me it would take more than a spalted hunk of maple to beat you at turning!;)

Simply graceful. Another Stinson beauty.

[Mark Pruitt]

AAU! (Awesome as usual!):D

[Glenn Clabo]

Someone once said...you must overcome resistance with persistence. Your work is just all around awesome.

[Paul Engle]

Travis ,
thanks for finding my vase, I musta fell down and couldn't get up ....:eek: :D
Very nice.

[Horst Hohoff]

This is first class work Travis! The ring on the top really gives it that extra touch of class.

I can almost type "wow" without looking anymore...WOW! Another beauty, Travis! Absolutely beautiful. And I really appreciate the simplicity of the form and so forth as it really lets the wood speak. The illusion of a collar works well in that respect, rather than having an added piece, as it doesn't distract while adding just enough emphasis around the opening. Nice!

[Andy Hoyt]

I'm sorry Travis - but I'm afraid that this thing has suck written all over it.

:D:D:D
oh yeah - Wow!

[Bernie Weishapl]

Travis that is a mighty fine looking piece for you having trouble with it. Love the form and finish especially the circle on top. Nice job.

[Jim Ketron]

Great Piece Travis!
Now what are we going to do with Andy:rolleyes:

[Ed Scolforo]

Travis, beautiful form, as usual, and I like what you did on the collar. Keep inspiring us!!

Andy may want to be careful, Travis may turn him into a hollow form.

[Tom Sherman]

Bytheway Travis nice piece.

[Travis Stinson]

Ha Ha........Andy.......................It's on.;)

[Andy Hoyt]

Ooohhh - I'm a shaking and quivering, Travis.

But I don't think your mustardizer has the needed swing, or the horsepower and torque either.

After all - you know what Moxie does to ones innards, doncha?:D:D:D

Did I just say that?:eek:

[Mark Cothren]

Andy may want to be careful, Travis may turn him into a hollow form.

If you're referring to that noggin of his........................too late.

Yea, it rots your guts.;) So, are you saying that you don't have the guts to go heads up with a big ol HF likeness of your head? :eek: I would have to scrounge around for the ugliest chunk of wood I can find.:p

[Andy Hoyt]

Ugly wood? Easy - just ask that no good for nothing Cothren fella for some of his fresh killed walnut. And my melon is already pretty hollow. But if you really think you can do it -- bring it on bub.:D
