We have some stunning, ancient oaks in the uk but We have some stunning, ancient oaks in the uk but Spain has ancient olives. Real pleasure to stumble across this one & grab a #selfie sitting on the base. What you can’t see is the tree actually has a split in the centre you can walk through! It’s almost certinally we’ll over 500 years old! #ancientolivesofspain
Real pleasure to make this table for a good friend Real pleasure to make this table for a good friend, @russpang and Alice for their new home. Measuring 2.4m x 1m, the top is made from 35mm thick solid English Oak which had been eroded to bring out the grain. The natural edges have been retained either side. Legs and aprons match the @farrowandball ‘Off-Black No.57. They also wanted two benches to match. These were sized to be usable either at the ends or placed next to each other along the sides.

So nice to make a dining table for an old friend. So nice to make a dining table for an old friend. Matt was fully involved with the design process from start to finish and even helped put it together. We studied photography together back in 1995 and have been friends since. He took the ‘behind the scenes’ photos of me attaching the legs. With a recently completed extension to his home, he wanted a dining table to suit the space. The oak used was all from the same tree with the provenance to prove this. Matt wanted the legs powder coated to match the radiators and door frames. A 6mm stainless steel bar was set into each side. The oak was finished to a mirror like appearance using a technique called raising the grain and sanding up to 600 grit.

When the centre differential in my Subaru failed, When the centre differential in my Subaru failed, I thought it would be fun to strip it down and see how the thing works. Turns out it’s a well engineered bit of kit and I was considering ways to share it with others. If I mount it to a piece of oak in it’s complete state, it will simply look like an uninteresting lump of stainless steel. If I pull it apart into it’s component parts, how do I make it ‘make sense’. After a few days procrastinating, it came to me... ‘The puzzle with a ‘diff’erence’ ‘See if you can put it back together, Fun for all the family’ All the separate sections have been hung from hooks on a piece of oak in a random ‘fashion’, ready for someone to try and put it back together correctly. Should provide hours of entertainment after meals! #viscousdiff #subaru #puzzle
Several years ago I made this collection of kitche Several years ago I made this collection of kitchen storage units for a client in N7. Each unit was designed with a different function in mind and we measured the intended tableware items to ensure they fitted. My favourite is the ‘Z’ shaped cup holder that is now filled with brightly coloured children’s mugs! Always nice to revisit old work. #bespokefurniture #oneoffoak
Alfresco welding at dusk. Some chap calling himsel Alfresco welding at dusk. Some chap calling himself @lighttrapper_photography ‘snapped’ this picture of me working. The light trails are tiny spheres of molten steel. A slow exposure of 1 second creates this waterfall effect. #bespokefurniture #oneoffoak #handmade #madeinengland #welding #lighttrapper_photography
Thoroughly enjoyed making this 150cm coffee table Thoroughly enjoyed making this 150cm coffee table for a client in north London. The oak was distressed to reveal the grain and fumed with ammonia to create a darker, richer tone. #bespokefurniture #customfurniture #handmade #coffeetable Photographed by myself @lighttrapper_photography
