    Default Quick Fathers Day present

    As my dad is now in his mid 70’s it’s hard to think of what to buy him.
    I decided to get on the computer and design some coasters. Then into the shed and on to the CNC, I used some Sheoak and added a bit of resin, the “H” in the centre is for our surname. I hope he likes them!

    I bet he loved those coasters.
    Hope you managed to have a drink with him and use them.

    He does like them. We are in different states so a drink is out of the question for now. He also liked the idea of using them as helipads! Haha!!

    Haha! I thought about sending him one. Turns out he has one that he has never used, I could just imagine my mum yelling at him for using it in the house!! Gold!!
