really cool. I'm relatively new around here so this is the first of your annual ornaments I've seen. Might be interesting some time to put together all of them for a photo shoot. Beautiful work.

Great idea!

Larry, It takes the mind of a turner like you to come up with a wonderful twist on the ornament world! As you are well versed in the segmented world your skill translates well and this little wishing well is great!!

Thanks for the inspiration!

Jeff

Thanks Larry... I like all four of them but your latest seems like quite a step up in time/difficulty. Can't wait to see what you do next year
