First goblet and first captive ring

[chas_41_uk]

I turned my first goblet today out of a piece of Ash. It's just under 6 inches tall.
I also decided to add a captive ring, which is too big and not very good.
I was going to remove the ring, but "Her Indoors" said I should leave it on for your critique

Chas, the ring doesn't look to much out of place to me due to the goblet size and shape .. Damn good first effort however you look at it ..

Great job Chaz I am a long long way of doing something like this

And I just don't get how you did that magic thing with the ring

Thats great Chas, nothing wrong with it. You can tie your wine up when you go for a waz

 

[Woody]

Well done Chas an excellent first try but Sue wont get many peanuts in that

 

[Buckeye]

It's lovely Chas the ring shouldn't really have a flat on it, but if it is your first, what the hell

A great achievement for a first especially the captive ring. Did you put some sandpaper onto the stem and sand the inside of the ring

 

[Terry]

Excellent first effort Chas !!!

Yes I know Peter, that's why I was going to take it off

Yes Derek, I attached the sandpaper to the stem with masking tape. The took it off and put it back on the right way round

 

[Grump]

Sorry Chas but I have no criticism to offer, I think it's an excellent first effort all round, ring and all init?

 

[Matt]

Good work Chas, you should be well proud of that

 

[bassethound]

Yes Derek, I attached the sandpaper to the stem with masking tape. The took it off and put it back on the right way round

That did tickle me! lol.....

 

[PhillH]

I think that is fab-u-lous !

The goblet is a great shape and a lovely finish.

That whole captive ring thing fascinates me, one on the to-do list after seeing that.

That's nice, if they were to be used you could make a set of them each with a different captive ring so at parties people would remember which goblet was theirs.

[Buckeye]

Yes I know Peter, that's why I was going to take it off

I would leave it and when you do the next one you will be able to see the progress. It's still a good goblet
