Sun Apr 02, 2006 12:29 pm what do you think and what would you pay? |

My dad has been pestering the hell out of me to find out what people think of his wood work,
I said that I would create a gallery and get people to look at them and find out if they liked them and if they would buy them and how much they'd pay for something like these.
These are wood things that he has created using his lath and hes only learning so be harsh .
Instead of posting the photo's as they are rather large I have created a gallery.

Please go there then look and then comment and stuff.

oh, how about a dollar for the whole lot?
, nah, they look really nice but kinda easy to create actually. I'm not much of a goblet and bowls person(and isn't it Mortar a Pestle instead of Mortor? I have been playing TESIV: Oblivion a lot you know) i'm more with painiting and pictures.
Are they for display or use?

I gotta say though, cutting wood on a Lathe isn't that hard. I learned cutting metal with a lathe on school and its really not hard.
