Segment is done with indexing and cutting segments to build rings. There are two types, open segmenting and closed. Check. You tube out and you will see lots of posting on segmenting.I love the open holes. Well done, it's gorgeous. I'm guessing you had something cut up as a spacers to keep the openings regular?
Have you tried any other degrees of spacing? My experience the bigger the number of degrees of spacing the rougher it was to turn. In open segmenting it is difficult to compensate with speed. Anything over 600-700 would risk a failure. I have been using 1.5-2 degrees mainly on 48 open segments per row. The 4 degrees looks AWESOME with the 24 seg row. Great work!!!!!!!Segment is done with indexing and cutting segments to build rings. There are two types, open segmenting and closed. Check.
