The Oak Blob - FINISHED

This is where we don't want anything but evidence of your finest wood butchering in all its glorious, and photograph laden glory. Bring your finished products or WIP's, we love them all, so long as there's pictures, and plenty of 'em!

I've listed as 'buy it now' because ebay wanted £40 for a listing with a reserve. :|

It's all good stuff.

:text-bravo:


I can't get the blog link to work on my old pc ..

Also, I'd consider adding photos of your other work below the description .. make the most of a months advertising !

and finally, be careful with ebay's delivery deadlines.. you have fast and free .. if it doesn't arrive on time, ebay have a knack of refunding the customer from your paypal account ! :o I'd put a longer delivery time on, even if you will deliver quickly :D
Make sure you send fully tracked too.

Good tips Rich - thanks for that! I shall get straight onto it 8-)

'The Blogs' site (wix.com) takes ages to load up initially, but once it has, it's normally okay.

Rich, I've had to relist as I couldn't add photos after the text in the last auction. This one looks much better.

I've made a note at the bottom with ref to dispatch and delivery.

What do you think chap?

A big thanks Rich for sending me a superior drinking vessel - very cool indeed. 8-)

I received it yesterday and I had to show it off standing proud on its new oak blob, so I've taken some pictures although they're not that good due to the light. I did try and take some pictures last night with my new glass fully charged, but the light wasn't on my side.

I love the shape of this fine vessel and the inscriptions are just the job - including;

"Beer is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy."
"A little bit of beer is divine medicine."
"Let no man thirst for beer."
"A fine beer may be judged with only one sip, but it's better to be thoroughly sure."

And my favourite one;
"On victory, you deserve beer, in defeat, you need it" :lol:

Thanks again Rich! I am very grateful ole chap and I shall enjoy many a pint from this superb vessel - brilliant!

Very smart! :D

Now pour some decent good quality beer into the glass. 8-)

Namibian Breweries do an excellent Tafel Lager. 8-) :D

Sorry Paul, I missed this post.
That link is for an old listing, but I found the new one in your items for sale.

For me, the photo's don't show in the decription,
except the "HiFiCabinet" 8-)

I got Wifey to have a look, and she said she could see the photo's on her laptop

Apart from that, all looks good to me :-)

Cheers Phil. I wondered whether anyone was going to say "get some decent beer in it" :lol:

I might....

Cheers Rich - no worries matey.

We have the same problem here. All the pictures in the description are visible on the desktop, but only the music cabinet is visible on the ipad.

I've given my website a cleaner less complicated look too. Mrs P always says I ramble on too much (darn cheek!), so I've gone with the minimalistic approach. 8-)
