    Default Rosewood platter

    Hi guys , I made this small christening plate ,( only 38șin the shed today , )
    Was given the timber by a friend , who wanted a small plate for his granddaughter
    Nice piece of rosewood , would anyone be interested in engraving a name and date
    around the edge for me , maybe someone with a laser printer or similar
    Thanks for looking

    I like that smiife, a classy looking piece. The raised lip, the scorched? lines on the rim all work really well together. I would be very pleased to have turned that myself.

    I don't know of anyone. Would a trophy engraver be able to do it

    Beautiful work on this piece Smiife... not a blemish to be seen in the images. Now THAT'S a nice piece of timber!
