Woodturning Spring Blossoms - This Year Spring Needs Help

www.AsWoodTurns.com
Spring is finally showing evidence of coming. For this video, I found another style of flower that is very fun and interesting. It is turned from a log slice while maximizing the amount of natural edge across the flower bloom.
It is tough to visualize and layout for success. I also needed a slight modification to a tenon faceplate to use on the live center.

Enjoy.

You make it look easy... almost as easy as Vladimir made it look. Kudos on catching a good shape and edge.

Looks like a fun project, Alan. Nice to have options for flowers so the bouquet has variety! I was thinking I could turn from a branch but once I out out a template and tried to arrange on paper, I began to see the challenges of having enough wood for a tenon even with smaller jaws. I was thinking a regular cone center would work and then figured out it might not provide even support inside like your dowel drive center. Always fun to try something new and this one is on my list. Thanks for sharing.
