Lidded suspended

[tim self]

My first attempt at a suspended. Kingwood body with "legs" 1/8 thick. Walnut lid, sanded 600, then MM, and Beall.

Tim; That is excellent! I like the little bit of sap wood showing on the feet. It adds some contrast.

The feet seem a bit short for the suspended bit, but I am assuming that the surface isn't level and smooth.

A nice bit of turning and finishing. I think the collar of the vessel is a little bit heavy. And I agree with Randy S, it doesn't look like the vessel is standing on it's legs but it isn't clear if this is a real problem or a photgraphic problem.

nice looking piece. How are your knuckles?

The view is due to my VERY cheap photo box. The legs give the bottom approx. 3/16 inch clearance.

That is beautiful. Nice work.

Nice work. I also like the sapwood at the end of the feet. This site reminds me of 1950's Science Fiction spaceships.

It looks great and I also like the sapwood at the feet.
