I hate it when people post pieces like this. I will now spend ages figuring out whether the beads were done off the lathe with a router or on by some clever means LOL. very different to what we usually expect from your workshop George, just as good as the rest though. Kudos for getting all those beads in ash without any splintering.

Well, that's thinking outside the box, for you. Grand idea, George.

One question, if I might ask, where did you get your name-branding-iron made?

George.

I think you've got it absolutly right, the longditudinal beads but only over part of the form, adds a terrific amount of interest.
