Trying to get the hang of turning again.
Wanted to get an idea of the limitations of my existing set up as well as a feel for the tools again. Figured I would start with a simple form. Haven't done it in years except for a few pieces that I used a duplicator to cut.
Still have a ways to go.....
I turned this from a piece of 1-1/4" thick cherry I had left over from the kitchen remodel. It is about 9-1/2" wide. Paste wax finish, wire burnt ring and sanded to 320.
CC more than welcome

The beaded detail at the rim is not easy to do, and you pulled it off nicely. Now we just need to get some thicker material in your hands so you can try some deeper pieces.
