Thinning the sycamore goblet
and the start of the stem
The thin stem gets longer
And longer
The base is shaped equally thin
and there you
have it
Starting to hollow out
the sycamore vase
Guaging the thickness of the wall
with a light
The finished vase ready
for piercing
Using a dentist's drill
to pierce the vase
The finished vase with
it's dragonfly decoration
Hollow vessel with
a screw top finial
Four components are required
to make the finial
The textured and coloured pot
about to have the finial
glued in
Using a polishing mop
for the final touch
