Gday guys and gals

Thx Mat

I want to make a vessel that doesn't have a base but is supported in a similar way as the pic I posted. My creative block is what shape do these legs take and how do I plan to anchor them to the vessel. Cause of the medium I plan to use will be very unforgiving and extremely expensive so I plan to move very slowly. It'll be one of the very few pieces I've ever actually drawn out before attempting. I have a collection of digital pictures that is in the thousands but non of what I'm looking for, so I was hoping a few pics here would help stimulate the mind.

The Book of 400 Boxes has a few photos of boxes like that.

Good luck

Hope that helps.
