"Can you make me some table numbers?", asked the nice lady at the hotel where they display my pots. Well, I could hardly say 'No', could I. So I quoted a price for 25 consecutively numbered little white cotton-reel-shapes, each a-top an oak cone, 8"tall. I set about making them in a way that Henry Ford would have been proud of, working from number 1 to number 25, completing just one small step at a time, but repeating it a further 24 times. that way, I got the production time down to a minimum.
So, I've spent the last few days repeatedly counting down to 25, just like the process of counting down to Christmas day when December 1st is upon us.
I've given each piece 2 coats of melamine and two buffed coats of microcrystaline wax.
