I love the timber but for me the lower section could have come in to a smaller diameter foot.
Nice smart finial as well.Dragonfly
No-one suspects the dragonfly!

Excellent piece good sire!!
I like the sharp delineation between the top and
bottom of the form and the shape and size of the finial.

hi guys thanks to all for your comments,
for the lid and finial i used spirit stain and lacquer
it dries really quick and soaks right in to the timber
and i think it gives a nice finish,be warned a little goes a long way
and also makes a bloody big mess of your hands for a
few days afteri suppose i should have worn gloves
but that would be to easy wouldn't it
thanks again for your comments
cheers smiife
ps. it did have a foot but i took it off,may be i should have left it onLast edited by smiife; 26th March 2013 at 08:16 PM. Reason: to add ps
