Plinths




I think most bells look at their best when displayed on a wooden plinth. Now that's where I am in luck. I came across Brian at Lymington market where he had a stall for a variety of wood products, including plinths. He now makes them for me at his Christchurch workshop. Now Brian's workshop is something to behold. I have never seen so much in such little space. How he ever finds anything only he knows. Here he is putting the finishing touches to the plinth for a Henry Symondson bell. The other plinth now has Sir George Murray sitting on it. (Earlier post)
Long live great British woodturners!
