So the drift here is, you know, one-tenth of an inch. So compare that to ten... to 10,000, so it's 100 times worse in terms of precision.

Potentially, yes. That's what it looks to me, but... Once again, I cannot be sure unless you analyze a bunch of them and they can say, ah, you know, if you make this vases, you know, this is the pattern that you get. But because there is a pattern, you know, I tend to think that there was a path to it.

And in all probability, you would get it even, you know, with a manual tool, if you turn it manually.

It should break, yeah. I see your logic, yeah. So it's consistent with that idea, yeah. So it was done in one pass without clear resetting of the tool because the line isn't broken. Yeah, what you see is systematic drift. So as you were, you know, hollowing it out, you know, you were just shifting.

It's, you know, when my lovely wife paints, sometimes when she paints something over and over, it tends to slide because, you know, that's what happens to us. You know, you think it's close, You put an X stroke, but it's not quite at the same place. You put the next stroke, and the thing drifts.

And every so often, she comes to me and say, curse this eye I was painting for so long, and now it's in a different place. And that's what we see here, you know. It's just what happens. Yeah, it's another vase, just for example, the other vase. It's not quite as precise as this one, but it's still pretty amazing.
