Tri Helix Grail
#11
Hello once again everyone Here's is my latest piece thought I would put a twist on things. 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.

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

I hate saying the word but that is really Cool.  Well done buddy.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification.  Thank You Everyone.

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

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!

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