Staved and segmented

Kirk, your joinery looks to be excellent. I really like the Curly Maple staved section. However, IMHO, I don't think the two styles go together very well. Maybe a solid color horizontal band separating the two styles would help a little - but probably not too much. BTW, love your table!

Very sleek and modern looking vessel Kirk; I love what you’ve done! How did you join the stave section to the segmented section with the change of grain in mind please? Any processes?

@Tom Gall I did not plan well enough, and thought about adding a separation stripe too late in process. Next time!

@Russ Braun thanks - the join between stave and segmented was done with a rabbet so that there was more glue surface area. The overlap in the rabbet was about a quarter inch or so. Each section was turned separately using a faceplate and glueblock, outsides roughed, and insides cleaned to close to final wall thickness of a quarter inch. The rabbet cut into the ends of each section, then tweaked until they fit. The two sections glued together, and the outside turned between glueblocks.
