Segmented Apples

Left over from my wood turning days.   I lost interest and sold my lathe after a learning curve where I learned that I really don't have the patience for the process so I sold my lathe.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Interesting "Apple".

Really nice! 

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Great looking piece Albert! I assume the top is a lid and the body is hollow?

Yes, it is hollow.

That took allot of work and allot of time. very nice!
Nice pieces, like em both.

I turned many years ago, and got to the point you are at, it was more work than the joy it brought, so I quit, and sold the equipment. Now many years past that, I kinda miss it, and find myself looking at lathe's and wondering??? I think I have more patience than earlier, and I have nothing but time now. Maybe it's just where in life the crash occurs? 

You appear to have had more of a gift for it, than I did, those segmented pieces are harder than what I used to do. 
The first time I saw this post was on my phone. The image was so small that I was wondering why you posted a picture of an apple. Clearly you did o good job on this (or I am easily fooled 😁)
