I've never made any solid ones for that reason .Fantastic job. I made one from solid cherry and it cracked due I think to the hot coffee inside. Since these are segmented I think they may be more stable. I predict you'll have to make some more after the show. Good luck.
Thanks.Looking pretty good! Mug sales attract a lot of attention. Get ready to sell!
You said Farmington (that's a ways away from Freeland) but didn't say when or where in Farmington.
Make sure you report back on results. Us scardy cats are waiting to hear.
Good luck!
