    Default Inlaid towel rack

    I made this a year or so ago ,Sheoak is always a pleasure to work with , The inlay is Banksia for the seahorse the rest of the inlay is recycled plastics eg knitting needles, pvc pipes , plasic containers ect also metals eg copper and aluminium wire,and real seashells at the bottom set in epoxy, even the lockable casters I recycled from a commercial display unit.

    Fantastic looking piece of work, where on earth did you get the idea for from. Certainly a one off.

    That is wonderful work.

    I have been hunting around for a nice bit of Sheoak for quite a while now, I have never used it & am very keen to try.

    You inlay is spectacular, & I like the use of the other materials as well, particularly the shells.

    One of the nicest & most original pieces I have seen.

    Well Done

    Steve

    I really like that, the inlay stands out well and doesn't fade into the background.
