You glued up laminations of contrasting wood to be sliced down to use for inlays/banding.

You're having very thinly layered cake with your tea.

Hey Ralph,
Given your affection for your new lathe, I'll guess that your putting together a segmented piece. Although, the angles don't exactly suggest that.

Angle cut turning blanks to give a parrabolic curve look when turned.

Well, it looks like Tom was on the right track but Ice got closer so the point is his...
It is my first attempt at a pen blank - I'll post something in the turning forum if I get a chance to have a go at it over the weekend...

WOW MY VERY FIRST SOGGY POINT! 
Of course now you have to post pics once you get it turned.
