We have not had one of these for a while.  I have a freelancer who needs independent feedback. Comments please.

Sensitive " round over " ?

Sycamore? Skillful work, not easy to do.

 

Waste of time.

Looks crap to me... sorry to say... maybe a bit harsh as we didn't see before pic....

 

Syc are hard and a pain to do if going back too hard....

[Mark Bolam]

Do you honestly think that’s going back too hard?

[JaySmith]

It’s ok but personally I don’t think it’s a great shape. Too hard on the 10 and 2 o clock areas if looking at a clock face. Not enough curve for me, the top left is higher than the centre point and bottom right sticks out too far. However that being said certainly not as bad as some you see for sure.

No but if you go back hard or further you start to get gaps.....

Not really in to reductions, well we are but not quite like the one above, looking at the photo and from what has been said all ready i will agree with most like taken to much at 10 and 2 o,clock and bottom right is sticking out could be a better shape in my eyes but what was the man on the ground doing ?,

[Conor Wright]

Looks like it should have been brought back more.

To be honest I have probably done worse. (Usually because client wants to see more of an effect) I would have taken a bit more height out to get a better shape. That bit on the right needs to go it would piss me off if I left it! 

Hard to judge without a before pic and pictures from one angle can look better or worse than another.

I would say it's acceptable but not as good as it could be.

 Mick is right in that it's a waste of time in a way. Going to be back at square one in a couple of years.

People will never agree on the results of reductions like this, everyone sees it through their own eyes. If the client was happy and paid up that's the best result you can hope for.

How dare you.

The only gaps in my reductions are the ones the grinder leaves in the lawn.
