I've been making some bits recently

And the throne I made Inc weaving the seat part

Excellent Toddy,, Diid you have to bent each seat slat before welding or just apply some tension?

I really like the house sign.

Who was the supplier of the components?, I use DC iron but their numbers are a bit large at 100mm, those look more like 50mm...or am I wrong.

I tried to bend as I went, and that really didn't work, or look good, so I bent each bar then assembled it

Those numbers are from DC iron, and the leaves are from brundles

So are they the 100mm numbers?

Edit: Just checked the site and they now have 50mm, must be new stock I was unaware of

Yes they are

nice sense of style on all those bits although not sure people will be queuing to sit on the throne (snigger, snigger)

I have always had a problem with

Occasional table

nobody has ever explained what they are the rest of the time

Some times a phone table, and sometimes it's just a piece of art

Nice work there mate.

The other half sorta liked the table and wanted the birdbath doing the same style

Well that would be worth £600 on that BBC 'Money for Nothing' programme.

well i have been asked to make some bits to sell in a local shop.
but i am not sure how much to price something like this for... esp if you know how much the material was and time to make it (very little)

and yesterday i finished a set of gates and installed them, for a couple that i happened to have meet wile i was looking in a diy shop for some ideas

here is a pic of them complete

the latch was a little different too

as well as the drop bolts

these have leaves that hold the bars, and the bars have a vine pattern to in-keep with the design.

i feel i undercharged for them, how much would people normally charge for this sort of thing?
but saying that i made a profit and it is now in my image portfolio so i can show other people if anyone else asks..

here is a better pic of the coffee table


as well i was asked to make a set of 3 coconut shy stands.
