How to make a vase, The hard way!

[Walt Nollan]

Through a previous thread, quite a few of you ask to see how I made my Frank LLoyd Wright vase. So With the help of a new friend (Ben Gastfriend) we found a way to get it here. It is not much but it shows my learning curve. I do not know if my process is the best or most effiecient way, but it worked. Hope you enjoy or just learn from my mistakes.

Great Job- fantastic-! The smaller segments which formed the black outline- how did you cut them to the correct angle to form the circle- did you make a jig for that part? Great craftsmanship Walter! :)

Tried to follow your link but the site says its not available because you exceeded your data transfer limits :(.

[Ben Gastfriend]

Yep... It's a free website, so it is mad because there's a large file up on it.

I'll work on it an let y'all know when I have (or haven't) resolved it...

Good luck!

That works, but why not zip it up and upload here? The zip file would be under the size limit. Just a suggestion.

Very interesting seeing the process. Never realize the total amount of time that went into the segmented pieces.

It will have to wait until I get home as that site is blocked. *&%*%&

Gads, Walt, that's just an amazing piece of work! Lots of time and detail in that one, and for a great finished product.
