1st off a re-design of my Stave Table lamp, I went for a less chunky lamp with 9mm instead of 20mm wide staves, giving it an overall more delicate look.
2nd an Oak Tea light holder, made from an offcut from a very large ,very old fence post strainer ,originally a ships timber , so very old.
3rd A mantle clock made from Oak, salvaged from old fishing vessel and intended for the log burner.

A very big thank you to a lady, one of my customers at the recent Hope Craft Fayre who delivered a very large & very old Ships timber to the shed where I do my craftwork, apparently it was used as a fence post and after a quick clean up appears to be Oak, Again , Thank you.
