Way more work than a blank, and more precision is required. Lessons learned, mistakes made. But not bad for a first time.

It looks really good! Are you using a wedge sled and a tablesaw for your segments, or a radial saw or another method?

Thank you! Table saw, but just a standard miter gauge, no sled. Test after test to get the 15° dialed in, and there are definitely some 14.95 and 15.05 segments... Getting each ring perfectly flat was not given the priority it needed.
