House warming
G'Day All
A couple of items for grandson & his fiance's house warming this weekend.
Cake stand silky oak, finished EEE and Glow, unfortunately glass dome is very high so probably a bit out of proportion, top separate joined to one piece base with spigot.
Second a pink ash bowl (sarsaparilla, aralia) finished with the same products.
Comments and critics welcome, have thick skin
Cheers
Bernie

Love the cake stand Bernie. Where did you get the glass dome from? I had some thing similar in mind but need a dome to work to.

Nice job
You are Right about the glass dome looking a bit tall but I do not think that will matter and it may even look better with a big chocolate cake inside.

Thanks for comments Rum Pig, chocolate and cream sounds good.
Shorty got them from a old bloke who has been collecting them for years, lost most of his sight so now selling them off, paid $15 each and bought two, think he has a couple left but not sure how I could get them to you, let me know if you want me to get one for you.
Cheers

Bernie,
The only problem with it being that high as i can see it, is that you have to bake bigger cakes but then is that a problem....

Hi Bernie...
Lovely gifts you made for their housewarming!
The turnings look good. The only thing I would have done differently is to put a bead on the rim of the cake server, instead of having it flat.
Cheers,
Ed
