Just cut off the parts that don't look like a bowl...

Very attractive teapot! I like this. Don't know that I've seen many/any segmented ones that stood out in my mind, but this one will for a while! Very nice.

Larry, I am not a big teapot fan, but your workmanship here is excellent! Great joinery, nice lines, and a good looking spout. Love the wood combination and the style of the bail.

Thank you for the kind comments. I wanted to enter somthing in the fair, and only had 7 days to get it done. So it was a little stressful not knowing exactly how to fit the spout, and having to wait until everything else was completed first to give it a try. It still needs some work, but I got it to a point where I could take a photo for the entry.

The men and women in this Turners forum continue to impress me to no end with the things they create with a lathe. I see pens, vases, and tea pots just as examples. I know I am a newbie to this spinning thing but a lot of you guys should call yourself artists! Way cool.

Very nice Larry! Love the color combination with the black accents and "mountain range" scene.
