Turning 8 Point 3 Axis Star - Best Yet

www.AsWoodTurns.com
A few weeks ago, I turned an eight point star inspired by an ornament submitted in last year's Ornament Challenge. From comments, I learned that I did not turn it exactly as they had but close enough.
However, I wanted a star with more pointed rays. So, I am taking the concept a bit further by cutting a deeper cove at each mount. I wanted to see if this would work also.
Did it work?

What do you think about the differences in the process? Which do you prefer?
Enjoy.

    This is a great project thanks. I've been working a lot on turning things involving the platonic solids and it immediately occurs to me that there is a whole new avenue of exploration with platonic stars.

    I like to project, I started to make one and realized to needed to make some spacers as I re-watched the video I also noticed you used a caliper to measure the center diameter. I would appreciate it if you could let me know what diameter you used when making this star? I don't want to go too small as I work on mine. Thanks for doing these youtube's.
