Large Platter

[edbanger]

Just finished a new large platter in sweet chestnut 281/2" diameter

Hi Ed....I like my platters and this one's no exception. A lovely piece of chestnut with enough special things going on in the grain to make it really interesting, but not only that, also, you've done a great job with it. The finish looks great (is it oiled) and the ebonised rim really defines the bowl nicely.

Hi Les

Yes it Danish oiled at the moment having had 3 coats, I think that it will still get a few more over the next week or so.

Thanks

Ed

      Like the ebonised ring which certainly defines and enhances the piece
      The not too shinny finish compliments a very pleasing and easy on the eye platter.

I do like large platters and this one is no exception but do people have the room for them these days.
good job ED.

Ed, that is one nice sized platter, well designed and finished, well done.

John, you'd as well ask... has people room or a place for even wood turning itself.

Cheers  David

What a whopper! If I could afford to buy it I'd have no money left to buy enough fruit to put on it!
Nice one ED,
