Congratulations Rhodri!!! Make it work!
Go friend, go!
At the other end of the spectrum, I finished the workbench today. A small one at 2 x 4 1/2 foot. With 25 pieces of recylcled pallet wood, 12 harmonious joints and two years since my intro to your blog, it is done! I named it the Paul Sellers Bantam.
As I followed various bench blogs recently, the following might be of use: it is 40 inches high, I am 36 years old, 6’1 with no disabilities. Planing is a joy!
Now for the projects………
Kind regards
Congratulations Rhodri! Its heartening to know that it really is possible to become a self employed artisnal woodworker! It gives hope to those of us who would dearly like to do the same. Good luck!
Nice one Rhodri!
Thanks Matt!
Congratulations Rhodri, that looks a stunning chair. You must have had one of those ‘gosh I hope this is going to fit moments’. I trust it travelled OK
