Woodturning - Cedar Wood Surprise!

I've had this lump of cedar drying for a while and I thought it would be fun to try something a bit unusual, and this project came to mind. I wanted to see more of the rippling in the final pieces, but I guess I can't win them all.
The wood was sanded up to 1000 grit and finished with sanding sealer and then a gloss spray.

Let me know what you think!

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.
