zig zag walnut and maple segmented

[mike fuson]

This piece measures about 8 1/2 x 12 . Antique oil and buffed. I worked on this on a pretty long time so I'm glad to see it over and done.

Wow Mike!

The time spent was well worth it!

Great job Mike! I agree with Pete, the time was worth it. Segemented turnings are my next goal.

Very well done Mike! I don't know as I have the patience to do those....

[Patrick Taylor]

I like how the smooth and simple outer curve contrasts with the complex straight lines of the segmented pieces. Great work!

[Steve Schlumpf]

Beautiful work Mike!! Great wood color contrast, design and finish! Super job of getting everything lined up! Very, very nice work!

[Bill Wyko]

Mike that's absolutely stunning. You really make me anxious to get my shop done and do some turning. That's a beautiful design and wonderful choice of woods. How many segmented pieces have you made now?

[Ken LaSota]

Mike nice work. Did you have a plan for the segments or did you wing it?

Thanks guys, to answer the questions, I haven't a clue how many I have done, 4 or five since the beginning of the year, probably 30 or so in the late 90s. I have never counted how many pieces goes into one of these.
Thanks again
