Curtis,
Thank you for sharing that link.  That is a beautiful piece.  I just wish I could understand Italian (I think that's what he was speaking.) - I'd have gotten even more out of it.  It's my guess that in the beginning he was addressing the importance/value of the grain of the wood he was using - and how to achieve the effect he did. 

I would have eased/beveled the 4 edges that form the glue lines at the top and bottom so that when it's time to split it apart you have a groove exactly where the joints are - aligning the knife/splitter exactly where it needs to be.

I wonder what the species of wood were that he used - they were a nice combination.

At the rate we (The Group) are "communicating" of late - I'd better send my "Merry Christmas and a Happy, Safe, and Prosperous New Year to all" wishes right now. 
(Bill - do you folks celebrate New Year's "opposite" us - like you do winter - summer?  so you celebrate New Year's on July 1?     :-)   JK!)

Bill introduced us to inside-out turning a few years back.,In this video,The turning is done on the lathe. but I feel that the Legacy could do as well or better, in some cases. 
Dose anyone have any Christmas ideas or projects that could be done for a Holiday gift project?
Come on people, Lets start talking.
And and all ideas are welcome.
C.A.G.
