Thank you all for your advises.
I was lucky to have found Yekhi'el, who trimmed, and grinded this piece.
Without him it would not have happenned.
He did the edges ' partly on angle grinder - I was holding it for him, then on the WBS,
The surface I did with the rociprolap, then with the angle grinder
I hope you like it
about 9.6" dia, 1.24" thick - as heavy as can be...

I'd say, keep Yekhi'el around!!! Pure geometric shapes are really difficult to do, free hand, because the eye can detect deviations.
If the glass looks as good in person as it does in the photo, you have graduated to a much higher level of conception and execution with this piece. I think it commands a very high price. Your many years of collecting artistic vision, practicing technique, and utilizing tools, are showing themselves well done here.

Thank you all.
Yes, I told Yekhi'el, that I shall do pieces like this only if I know that he will keep around.
Can't do it without him. Unbelievable what he did with the edges, really.
And yes, Bert, G'mar Hatima Tova to you and all
