I don't know if you remember but I posted a week or two ago about me blowing up my first small vase. I showed a few pictures of the blowout and the rest I was using and the tools etc... I was looking for guidance on how to turn a small vase and not get a catch as you went deeper. The consensus was that I needed a straight hollowing tool. I went and purchased a #1 straight Easy Wood Hollower. I had already put cynoacrylate into the cracks and bagged it so it wouldn't dry out... That was a week or two ago. I put it back on the lathe last night and here are the results. It has a mineral oil and was finish.. still not really dry yet, but thin enough to where it shouldn't crack... just warp around a bit, I think.

I am real happy with the results. Thank you all for your earlier help on this one.
