What, did you expect a thin vase from me?? :rolleyes: :rofl:

I made this as a prototype for some awards I will be making this winter and it was well recieved so I'm will be making 6-12 of similar ones with some verbage burned in where the solid black line is. It's about 15" tall and 6" at the top rim. Still weighs a ton and will no doubt split some more, but the person paying for the awards is quite excited about that! :D Whatcha all think??

(sorry for the blurry cell pics):eek:

Cool form, and I really like the grain on the flat top part. :thumb: You might want to hollow out the bottom a bit and fill it with lead, though. You don't want that thing blowing away in a breeze or anything. :D
 
Thanks guys...my daughter picked it up last night and told me it was too heavy! :doh: Maybe I should start making them thin. :eek::D:rofl:
