Hi everyone,
I just thought I would share some of my work with the Steemit community. Seem to be quite the artistic bunch here!
They have proven very popular! I have been working in restoration for about 15 years on and off.
I use various timbers yet the English Yew has proven most popular. The colour is a combination of special high quality resins. The resin is very expensive and the glass like finish is very difficult to get right! It's a very messy process and whatever the resin touches, it dosen't come off - Messy business! After a lot of years practice they look something like this.
This one above was one of the most popular to date! Had a lot of requests to make more of them the same! I try to explain to people that every piece is unique in that it is down to the piece of timber that I choose and no two pieces are the same!
This one was one of my personal favorites to date, reminds me of a topographical map!
Something a bit different here.
This one above is the beginning of a project - to make a dining room sized table. This really was a tough one to get right! A lot of work in this! About 3 weeks from start to finish. It's a large dining room table. One mistake in the top finishing coats and it costs about $250 to attempt to put right - that can go on and on! Many factors in pouring resin perfectly or it shrinks and takes a LOT of work an money to correct! Not for the faint of heart ;)
Another piece I finished recently.
I could just keep posting and posting! I have hundreds of photos of various projects I've finished. I actually send most of my pieces to the USA from the UK. They are really popular in California and Miami at the moment.
I'll post more projects past, present and future. If you care to follow me I'll check out what you are doing also! :)
