Paduak glasses

[brody2123]

Sacrificed another glass to make the second one from the other day. I don't usually copy anything so this was a bit of a bugger to do, and it's not exactly the same, but it's close enough. I've bought some of the champagne flutes from Turners Retreat and I've got some white Wenge to have a play with.

Looks close enough to me, bloody marvelous in fact. Well done Brody mate.

There is a slight difference in height Brody but excellent turning

And the base of the left hand one is slightly bigger I'm hoping they'll be too sloshed to notice

Well the point here is that they're hand made Brody and so in my opinion would always have a slight difference with copying perfection done by machines. I love them both and would adorn the glass cabinet of the best of homes.

You purposely made one smaller, as it's a ladies glass!
Just a case of marketing

Love these Brody!

You have to look to see the differences Brody, but as Neil says, it is an "His & Hers" set ..

These should only be used on special occasions remember .. :drunked:

Brody, you say that you are going to get some champagne flutes from tr - where did you get the glass for these from?

These were part of an old set, one of which was already broken, so i just modified one of the remaining three

T/R do wine glasses as well Neil

 

[Woody]

Excellent Job Brody hand made items should never be exactly the same or people would think they are mass produced

 

[Buckeye]

I think these can all be made differently and still be a great set. I chipped a glass stem the other day so it is earmarked for one of these.

These are two beauties Brody & they may not be exactly the same but the fine detail is nice & crisp.(magnified 50 times so I can see it).
They always say if you are going to make more than one make the last one first. love to see a full set.

 

[bassethound]

You done them as nicely as anyone could do them Brody, they will look good at anyone's table!

[Penpal]

Magoo youve done it again each glass separated is viewed as special when they are in use love them.

Peter.

 

[Froggy]

I agree with Paulm - handmade stuff should look slightly different when copying. They look great. How did you attach the glass to the wood?

 

[Jimjam66]

Nicely done. Now they just need christening! Hic!

 

[Penpal]

Padauk is special in bases mate. Love them.

Peter.
