Segmented Plywood Vessel or Vase

G’day, Bob. That is a very beautiful piece!! It would make a very good urn. How many cubic inches will it hold?
Do you have any shots of how you lay up the rings? You got them so perfectly spaced and I wonder how you do it? Nice going!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..............Cheers, Jim

Very nice indeed, I agree with Jim that it would make a very nice urn. You did a Handsome job on this one and the intire piece is very uniform.

Thanks for sharing

That is just amazing. I in awe of what happens to simple plywood in your hands.

Thanks for the comments. Jim I didn’t take photos of the lay up. It is officially an URN as I have orders for similar so will take photos. Finally picked up some off cuts of Marine Ply (the best) 38 pieces 4 foot long x 6 inches wide 3/4 inch thick plus a large amount of Baltic pine plywood. Pete plywood will be my signature pieces for a long time to come after today pickup.

Well done on the Segmented Vase.

Did you have to glue up the plywood to get the effects you got?

G’day Arlin, I did glue 2 strips of 1/2” ply together to give me some depth to play with. The segments are cut at 15 degrees with the surface of the ply wood facing out (the ply strips going up) the patterns come out as you turn the more curves the better the patterns. If you have the ply strips facing out that is what you get but still nice. Hope you can follow but just ask if you want more answers.
