    Intersecting rings

    Two 6” White oak rings. Thinking about doing this for a while. Finally did it.

    Drying time for segmented rings?

    I'm making segmented bowls / vases. They usually have anywhere from 8 - 15 rings made up of either 12, 16, or 20 segments each, depending on the style I'm making. It is (for me, anyway) a lot easier to glue a ring in place, turn it, glue another ring, etc. rather than gluing the whole shebang up...

    reuse ring or bangle core?

    I have been told that pen turners will reuse the brass tube on occasion (I'm not a pen turner). I was wondering if I used a stainless steel core in a ring or bangle and did not like the way the wood turned out if I could just remount the ring and turn the wood off and reuse the core?
