The wierdest commision.......or do you know better?
John Plater:
I received a commission from a person of mystical disposition to turn out the centre from a log and drill holes through the sides for the fairies to enter.

i consider that a weird reason behind the commission but a normal commission...
it will depend as to what you consider weird i suppose, i got asked for a 12' maypole that is currently down in hastings.
i've also had to sand and oil some real tennis racquets for a trophy.

I had to make some pie dishes for a chef because he reckoned the pies tasted better when cooked in a wooden dish. Never tasted them so can't argue LOL.

Well I made some wands from (real) elder wood. Had to improvise a bit for the phoenix feather core with layers of red/orange/yellow dyed veneer glued into a sandwich with the elder before turning. But looked pretty good! Supplied to nephews against a promise not to turn anyone into a furry animal...
