Success !!!

You may remember the earlier catastrophic failure.
If at first you don’t succeed, curse a blue streak, beat the lathe with a hammer, and surf the internet until you find a picture of one that you can pass off as your own.

Just kidding…........at least about the last part.

That looks great! Okay, for the next one, I want to see stacked rings going all the way up, with a couple checkerboard sections banded with some stringing…..

You’re right.
But I’m barely a woodworker, do I have to attempt photography too?.
Anyway, added a pic for scale.
It’s a travel coffee cup.

beauty…

I’ve been wondering how well do these keep the coffee hot? Prob better than the plastic travel mugs I’d guess, right?
