    Looking good, Allan.

    Really nicely done. Great proportions, nice bold design, well aligned segments. Great 2nd effort. Look forward to seeing more.

    Nice work, Allan! I concur with John Beaver's assessment of your form. Segmenting is something I definitely want to get into, but at this time I don't have the room for it, but hoping that will change one day before too long!
    Remember, in a moments time, everything can change!

    Vision - not just seeing what is, but seeing what can be!

    Nicely done Allan. Nice form and I really like the design.
    I may not have it all together, but together we have it all.

    Allan, all I can say is, "I wish my 2nd attempt looked half as good." Great job.

    Following on Malcolm's comment is tough, but I'll add that my second segmenting attempt didn't look any where near as fine as yours. Well done, Allan!

    I like it. Good job. I'm hoping to try segmented turning latter this summer.
