Amber fill saps mosquito

view of oak door showing detail of the gap that is to be resin filled

Another HoBBian Hand-made door but this one has dried out a lot giving us a long crack down the middle. We used green oak and didn't imagine it would shrink so much in the making!

Now it needs to have an amber resin strip, inlaid into this central vertical 'gap' and polished. The resin will start light yellow yet clear at the top of the door and slowly deepen through rice amber into golden orange towards the floor.

I've not worked in Resin before so if you would like to help finish this artist work contact us. We often work on the same principles as wwoof. Never heard of the wonderful world of wwoof? You should. Have a click on www.wwoof.org.uk and open yourself up to a new experience
