    Maybe you had one of those flash backs they always promised me I would have.... I thought it was painted at first. Nice!

    That's fantastic Bill. I've seen a similar technique before somewhere, perhaps your work as well. I can't figure out how you did it. Is there a tutorial or video out there somewhere for this? Or is it your proprietary technique....

    Hal Metlitzky first introducted this technique at the 2012 and 2013 AAW Symposium. One of his pieces from the 2013 Symposium is on the cover of the Rockler Catalog. This may have been where you saw it. In resent months there as been a growing discussion on this technique on the Segmented Woodturners Forum and from that Dennis Edwards published a How-to-Vedio on Utube. You can search Utube for "Dennis Edwards Woodturner" or "Dizzy Bowl" as he calls it.

    I really like the swirling effect you have created. I don't remember seeing any segmented work like that.
