It's still going to be fun to see if I can get the rim machined without it busting up into a hundred little pieces.
I have a friend in England who has a degree in woodworking, used to teach it, and makes incredible formed, carved, and bent, furniture. He's guiding the process of whittling that rim out, but makes it clear every step of the way that there is simply no guarantee.
So far, so incredibly good though...
Only one way to find out, and I only get to ride this merry-go-round once.
