This is my tallest piece yet using my homemade snake and I think this is the max for a tailstock mounted system. I could barely get the arms folded so as to enter the piece.Just under 13" tall by 7" wide. I had a lot of trouble with the finish because of the size of this thing. I started applying finish at a repaired check and by the time I got all the way around to the starting point the finish had started settin up there. Finally ended up spraying on a final coat of minwax gloss spray Poly. I was happy to realize I had not lost my spray painting touch after so long a time...Bill..
Be-U-Ti-Full. Your finish cannot be beat. You do such a great job with it. The turning ain't bad either. The wood is pretty cool with lots of color and movement. Lots of "WOW" for this one. 8-)
