Very well done!
Question....
Would it be possible to create a vase with multiple curves like S shapes by making a couple of bowls, flip one, leave out that base, then glue top to top?
Ain't it just cool what can be made with wood?!
Be well,
Ben
Here is one I am in the process of finishing for my wife.

What is the wood ? How wide was your board ? How wide was your starting for width of cut ? That is beautiful work !!! You should be very proud of yourself.

As I recall it is some oak that I reclaimed from a neighbor. It seems to me I made a bunch of blanks that were about 10" square and 3/4" thick. I cut a bunch of rings and then assembled them into a number of different shapes and sizes. The rings were cut using the 5/16" indexing scale. I am just getting around to putting a finish on one of them for my wife's birthday.

If there is anyone who wants to dump your Ringmaster send Steve (skou) a pm.
There, fixed your mistake.
Seriously, if anyone feels the need to unload, I'm also interested.

That's cheating!;)
I was only thinking unblemished surface(no screw/chisel holes).
Was leery of my '1', but if double sticky tape work . . . . . I now know 2.

Very nice job. I really like the grain match between the 2nd and 3rd ring

Very nice job. Where did you get your Ring Master from? I have been looking for one but have been having trouble finding one. Can't wait to see your follow-on projects.
As an add on...

I recently purchased a 10ER from Dallas Craigslist the guy had several shopsmith items, one being the Ringmaster. Paid $50 bucks for it. Several on EBay and the attachment needed for the shopsmith, but you are looking at $500 bills all said an done. I love it and see great things capable from it. Will keep you posted.
