That goes well with the cast iron legs - even though gives me a crick in my neck to look at it!

[devon TWiG]

Any old farm or industrial contraption with cast legs or stands like this are well sought after at auctions nowadays for this sort of project and they always seem to look good , this one included , well done ! Terry

heres a couple of my recent playings with wood, never been happier than now.

 

small chunky spalted sycamore table, just waxed, and same with oak table, both sold, now mrs misses the oak one so much have to make a mark two for keepers!

Looking good there Tony and Si

 

 

I made my second mirror the other day - pieces are glued so hopefully no movement causes them to peel off.

 

 

Going to make a few of these as pretty easy to make... next ones will be larger versions.

Thanks Rob, that's a smart mirror mate!

What glue did you use for the mirror rob ?

[Ian Leach]

A few of my mirrors.

Cool Ian - actually just looked at mine and there's a crack in it now - wood has shrunk and caused it!!

 

 

I have another plan (how do you do yours Ian?) - using a batten top and bottom the thickness of the mirror and then thin battens running vertically so the mirror is not attached directly to the mirror.

 

 

Could have been worse - could have been bigger and then sold to someone! Back to the drawing board...
