This is my first attempt to make this type of VASE.
Ron Brown and Don Russel have a Youtube Video showing them teaching a class and making them.
They looked great and I wanted to try.
This was the most difficult item I have made to date.
It has 270 plus pieces of some 8 different species of hard woods.
Do to my Lack of Vision I came close on 5 earlier attempts, wrong mitter angel, catch on lathe that caused a disaster,
But I am determined to master the task and finally was able to compete this Vase.
