Right then.
@ Orb.
To be truthfull I would much prefer to do them bespoke.I am fairly limited as to the machinery I have at the moment but will certainly see what can be done.Just let me know what you want and we can take it from there.
@Kat.
Very good question and a one that I new would arise.The timber I use is recycled from my grannies old chesterfeild,she\'s alright on the beanbag for now.
Sorry,joking aside the timber merchant swears its from a sustainable source so I have to trust him.
Knowing what goes on in the exotic wood trade I dont have much faith.
They are a big company so I reckon they are kosher.
@Tammy.
No problem,just email or pm me at the time.
As of this post I am totally out of the first lot.I will do some more but with a couple of changes.
Firstly I am not going to varnish them.It adds too much precious time into the effort to pay equation.I am sure you are all capable of doing them yourselves.
Also the 30mm round will be £1-30 unvarnished to account for the slight size increase.
So all unvarnished:
25mm square £1
25mm round £1
30mm round £1-30
40mm round £2
40mm square £2
Hey Mark !
Really nice bases, the price is great too !
So I saw this and was tempted too try doing my own and did some with my dad, using a cone bit and roman ogee. But I liked the side on your bases better, what are those bits you\'re using called ?
Here are the bases we made, a weird kind of wood, don\'t know what the heck it is. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v165/kirbir/baseogtermie001.jpg
They look fine.I prefer the right one as it has a sharp edge on the top face.Im using a 3mm rounding over bit sunk below the top to create the step.Dont know what wood you have there but it looks like a hardwood.
Ok, thanks for the info, I think we\'ve got one like that here. I prefer the right one too.. and yeah, it\'s some hardwood, salvaged from some bed I think.
