It's FINISHED!

I saw this and a few others made by George and have to say they are very impressive in person. We are having him work up a demo on this tecnique for our club and probably next years' Totally Turning Symposium.
Great work Goerge!

Not actually mounted "off axis..." The segments are made up of triangles, which are then assembled with no points aimed at the center. The segments swirl around the center opening. When the vase is formed, the contour combined with the segment orientation creates the illusion of the curved lines that you see.
Not sure if that helps... An other answer would be 45 degrees off axis for each segment (if that makes any sense).
I am working on a series of concepts, which incorporate curved lines (segments) into the design, several are posted, any input would be appreciated.

George, thanks for the response. I do swirls, ribbons, single and double celtic cross bowls but I still can't visualize yours... chuckle. I've looked thru your album and your technique certainly opens up some nice possibilities. If you would like to communicate privately I would enjoy it.

DURN YA, GEORGE!!!!! My wife saw this, now I gotta make HER one!!!!! Very nice design and material choices.

I guess I gotta ask... Why did you show it to her???
I have done a number of demonstrations on the "OATS" (Off Axis Triangle Stave) segmenting process and how to make the triangle stave cutting sled (VERY safe to use). In fact, I just did one for a club in Worcester, MA last night. I haven't been to Oregon in more than a decade (I missed the symposium this year).
You could have worse problems, she could want you to do the dishes or laundry or something - or REALLY bad, play golf!
