excellent. well done. now get to turning.
Just a note when you do stuff like pine, ayc, port orford, red and white cedar, cherry you can fly thru the stuff. When you go onto maples, birch, locust and apple, hardwoods you will need to really go slow with your stock removal. You will probably rip a few out from between the centers . Cutting the edges off the pieces, making an octagon out of it will help immeasurably. I suggest that be your next creation. I like to use a band saw with a long 45 degree block others use table saw tilted at 45. I did a how to show my way several years ago but have no idea where it is now
