Show pics of the lathe!
That turned out great. Thats one thing I have never thought about making before.
Looks nice. Could you post a little more on how you did your segments?
Last night I was poking around the V-Carve site and noticed that Warren came up with a way of doing bowls on his CNC. This allows you to also do oval shapes and what not:

I am trying to use this technique for some drawer pulls on a piece of furniture that is in the works.

Great lid! What woods did you use?
That looks great. What does the rest of the Cookie Jar look like?
This is the home made lathe, I have had this machine several years. The CNC router is new stuff for me, but lots of fun.
The segments in the lid were clamped with a ty-rap while the glue dried, then the whole thing was hot-glued to a faceplate and turned.
Nice, gotta make me one right after the drum sander.
Noticed the AF mats. Those things are worth their weight in gold...IMO.
