They are the ones but I think they got them from the Land Rover show at Billing.

 

Ah I see. Wish I'd bought more when I had the chance, they were certainly a good price.

Are you going to have a go at a bowl or cup next?

These three are from beech logs, inspired by fungal cups.:001_smile:

I will be having another practice over the weekend when I have restocked the first aid kit.

 

The rims on the cups is very, very fine, is the wood already seasoned and have you treated it.

As memory serves me, the wood was green but not overly wet. I roughed them out to an even thickness and once they'd dried out some more, pared them down further, getting that crisp edge on the rims.

Finished them with danish oil I think, if not then linseed.

Look forward to viewing your next piece,
