Latest Goblet

Here's the Cocobolo goblet I mentioned that was requested by someone at work. I added the Blackwood goblet to show perspective (it's the one that made the WOW cover the other day). The Cocobolo one is 10 3/8" tall, the stem is 9" long and 1/8" thick. The bowl is 1 3/8" and has a 1/16" wall thickness. The base is also 1 3/8" dia. There's a captive ring and the "trapped ball" at the base.

Well Chris, I see that you & Skyj where holding back in the goblet challenge on the stems. That is another W O W for you. I had a hard time doing what I did. That is very nice!

Chris you and Sky are really pushing the envelope on these. Super looking stuff.

Thanks Rick, I'm definitely pushing my envelope, but SkyJ is pushing THE envelope...not many people can do 20+ inches successfully.

This must have been one of your "serious" projects. Terrific touch is needed for a stem like that. Super piece, Chris.

Thanks UD and Jim.

Jim, I doubt that, at this point I'd have to work up to challenge SkyJ first. Wink

Both of you are something else when it comes to turning. Y'all are the leaders of the pack.
