Yes, it swivels! 2 lazy Susans let into the segmented cylinder allow it to swivel
Hunduran Mahogany, Maple and Wenge inlay with pre-catalyzed lacquer finish  
Detail of curved Wenge inlay
The weak point was trying to figure out how to attach the legs to the top while incorporating a batten below attempting to help keep the top straight. The screws are all at right angles to the board it is screwed into. So far, (1.5 yrs later, in a very hot house with forced air) its held up fine (though the clients dogs nawed at parts!!!!)
