LAST Call for Project II

last step for the top before sanding

traced the top shapes onto the bottom block of wood,
cut,  ran through the bandsaw to cut off the bottom,
hollowed it out by cutting pieces out 

finished bottom by sanding the middle, gluing bottom back on,
filing the edges to be flush with the top, added wooden rods to connect with the top,
and sanding the outside

This vessel was enjoyable to design and create, I learned a lot about wood and myself.

I'm happy it turned out well, so thank God for that. :)
