>Another for critique. This is from a hickory tree in my buddy's yard. This stuff turns like iron when extended this far over the tool rest. This thing is 14" tall by 5" wide. Some of you may have read an earlier post from a guy whose hickory vases were craking like crazy due to heat exposure. Yep, that was me. This sucker's cracked too, but its on the bottom.

Please post your comments, I can take em'. I expect to improve with practice.

Thanks, Bud

>The sides of the piece are very straight. You need to round these more as you go from top to bottom. You do not want harsh, straight lines. Also, the bottom should be smaller, which would happen if you rounded the body as you decend to the bottom of the vessel.
