This on measures 7'' high and 4'' across. Actually looks a little better in person. I guess you'd call it a goblet? Or part of one.

That's beautiful, Mike. Is that ambrosia maple? What's the stem made of? Did you color the stem? What finish?

You certainly keep busy.

I guess I should have wrote a little more about it. This is ambrosia maple, and I actually roughed it out over a year ago and had trashed it. When I was cleaning up saw it and thought I'd give it another try. The stem is poplar dyed black. The rim has india ink on it. Seal coat and wax finish.

I just hate it when Mike's "trash" is better than my best stuff. Very pretty piece Mike.
