    Scott, Looks good. Nice tight joints and good form. I like your choice of woods. As a suggestion, I think it is more eye appealing if the vertical segment joint lines on a ring are centered on the segments of the adjacent ring/rings. As an example, the joints on the light colored rings above and below the feature ring could be centered on the vertical dividers of the feature ring.

    Thanks I see your point. I was trying to stay away from the brick look but what you suggested would probably looked better around that ring did you notice I screwed up the position of the top light colored ring? Lol have you done any open segment stuff?

    Maple, ebony, and spalted tamarind. I veneered some poplar on the back of the tamarind because I was nervous about getting too thin

    Scott, It's never a screw up, just part of the design

    No I haven't done any open segmented turnings.
