woodturning an oak cup

I made a cup from a leftover piece of oak.
The wood grain runs through the wood at an angle, so it should give a special wood grain pattern.
I first mounted the wood on a faceplate and turned the outside, then I mounted the cup reversed with the recess on the chuck and hollowed out the bowl.
After I had removed the tailstock and was turning out the centerpiece, the centerpiece unexpectedly broke off and pushed the cup out of alignment.
I tried to get the cup exactly centered again, but that didn't work, so I turned the outside again and then hollowed out the rest of the cup and finished it.
I finished the cup first with a layer of sealer and then friction polish it.
The cup has a diameter of 11 centimeters and is 10 centimeters high.

Lovely looking cup Hans and the grain is very interesting. Nice recovery after the wobble came into play. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw

Yes, I saw this piece in a pile of sawn-off pieces at my work, and I thought it would be a shame if this became firewood. I noticed that the wood grain ran diagonally through this piece of wood and I hoped that it would make a nice, visible, and special wood grain, and that worked.

Nice... I hate when I can't get the damn work piece to line back up again after it gets a wobble.. what sealer is that you use? And also do you recommend a certain brand of friction Polish?

Hello, yes that can be annoying sometimes, but it is always a challenge to solve it. I use Borma Wachs Basis for quick-drying wood filler because it is versatile and dries quickly partsandpieces.nl/en/product/borma-wachs-basis-voor-sneldrogende-houtvuller/ . I use Chestnut friction polish and that works for me, and it is available from my local supplier and I have not tried any other brand yet
