Another fine piece of timber. An interesting choice of shape for the underside.....does it rock nicely?

Hi Les
not sure what you mean, it sits as flat as a pancake

hi Andy....I must be mis-reading the second photo.....I couldn't make out the shape of a foot and thought that it was a rocking-bowl.

It looks very nice Andy but as Les I find the base/foot a bit confusing is it a flat base or a foot.

Thank you Andy personnaly I like to see a shallow foot it makes the piece stand up and creates a nice shaddow under it.

I must admit I was thinking the same as everyone else regard to the base. But from what you have said I also have done the same having just a flat area and must agree with George about having a small foot to lift the piece.
All that aside the top looks great

Thanks for the comments Derek, with regards to the foot or lack of it, I didn't think it would make much difference as this is being kept vertical on the stand
