"Circus"

A Stave Construction piece I used to demo at our club meeting in March. The staves were layered, recut and reglued, then glued into an assembly. Consists of maple, paduak, black walnut and ebony.
Gluing techniques, mounting techniques and prel. turning were demononstrated at the presenation (1.5 hrs) This piece was finshed turned later and top added. Finish is tung oil.

I keep coming back to look at this piece, Bernie, and, of course, I'm trying to figure out, in my mind, how the staves were cut. It's a nice piece and it's well executed. I thought it was bloodwood at first glance. Does the lid come off? You do nice work. I'd like to see a shot straight down from the top with the lid on, if possible.
