I don't even want to think about the time spent sanding all the inside surfaces.
Great job!

wow, that's pretty impressive Jack. The assembly of that must have been rather clever or rather tedious (perhaps both, lol)
Finish looks like it came out brilliantly too. Bravo!

This piece is Sapele turned and carved the finish is lacquer, it stands 14" and is 3.5 at the widest point. This one took a bit of time to smooth all the inner parts but yet keeping the crisp lines of the helix, there was a lot of hand sanding.
WOW. I like

That is an exceptional work of art.
I can't begin to imagine the time and patience it took to create it.

Amazing work indeed!
Can I ask about how many hours you have in it?
