Your work always impresses Pete, as does your photography.

Pete,

I do like your goblets, I often peek at your webpage to see what your making now.

However I see you've made the same mistake as me on your Wedding Goblets, you've only put two captive rings on them.

Yeah, I thought that was right as well, but as some smart- 4rse explained it to me there are 5 rings in a wedding ...

Ring 1 - the Engagment ring

Ring 2 - the Wedding ring

Ring 3 - if you are blessed along will come the children and so there is the Teething ring

Ring 4 - some years into the marrage the wife wants something special and so the Eternity ring

and through all of that there is Suffer-ring!

Okay, you can groan now!

[bodrighywood]

The wedding goblets are based on the Celtic tradition often seen in the love spoons and the rings signify unity and eternity as they cannot be removed without breaking. I haven't heard the 5 ring idea LOL. I also sell them singly as love goblets. That came about when I was making a pair for someone and the rings kept breaking and I was left with too little wood to do a ring so ended up having to make another pair from more wood and was left with a single ringed goblet.

Just as your sig line says.

must ask the wife about a suffer ring

[bodrighywood]

Thank you. The three areas I do most are goblets, the wabi sabi work and crafting tools. I will make pretty much anything that is wanted within reason but doubt you want photos of pin bowls, key rings or fridge magnets LOL.

Pete, the usual crisp details and form, though you've reworked/repaired the Oak with purple heart cabochons image, pops one of them on the left, thought you'd had a glitch with things.

Thank you David, the 'popped' cabuchon is actually me pratting about in Photoshop with the background and not getting it right LOL.

Yep it's a very pronounced white line, doesn't detract from the overall form.

Thanks people. My personal favourites are when I am asked to make goblets for people into re-enactment. Making them so that they look old and worn is a bit of a challenge if they want them soon but I try and have some on the gio as I use old wood or wood that is likely to move. So many differnet styles and shapes that it is great fun trying to adapt to wood.
