Turning tall cylindrical Vases

Follow the process of turning a tall cylindrical porcelain vase from start to finish. After joining two leatherhard cylinders I turn them on a chuck to get them to the desired thickness. The turning has to be done quite carefully because I want to avoid any undo pressure at the rim section, which could crack very easily. The cylinder has to be very evenly leatherhard and the tool freshly sharpened.
