It has been a bit of a privilege to have been involved with a piece of wood like that and to have it go to the Eden Project, and even more so to be involved from start to finish.

 

They are going to come and interview me for the website, and use all or most of the pics and vids that i have, and they videoed the whole move from the moment the crane started unfolding at my place, to the moment he had folded it up again at the Eden Project.

 

I think i shamelesslymade sure my logo'd sweatshirt was fully visible from time to time:blushing:

 

I also got to ride in that Scania which is just awesome:thumbup:

No shame in abit of self promotion mate

[Rob D]

Good work to you tom for that.

 

Hopefully the promo will draw more work to you.

 

What a fun job to have!!

[Tommy_B]

[White Noise]

Bump

 

Hi Tom just found this thread, awesome project and it must have been a true privelege working with the eden project, just looked on their site for details/follow up etc, did they ever come and do the interviews etc as I can't find any references on the eden project site at all:confused1:

Congrats man a truly one off project:thumbup1:

[tommer9]

Cheers Ian. As i sort of expected, they didnt come good. I keep meaning to chase them up on this, as they had a hefty reduction on the price on the proviso that they would do it. Thanks for the reminder.

[Ian H]

Definately worth a chaser i'd say, people/companies have a nasty habit of "forgetting" when it's their turn to honour their part of the deal, sadly all too common these days.

 

Good luck Tom.

 

PS. thread was a real joy to read.

They are some big old lumps, wouldn't have minded seeing some turner spin one of them up.

There was a lot of effort put into obtaining them i see, great to see a worthwhile project at the end of it.
