    Wow, great work! Thanks for posting this. I never gave a thought to using a compass for this. That's a great idea!

    I hear ya...quite agree.
    Perfectly logical when you see it done.
    The greatest ideas are the simplest ones...ones that make you say: "Why didn't I think of that? It's so simple any mug could've thought of it."

    Well this mug didn't!

    Thanks Robert.

    Trimming to fit..........





    Welding the layers together....











    After dressing the welds..... I do have a couple pin holes to fix, but the gap is looking much better.
