A few weeks back I had an email from a potential customer who wanted to have a potting tray made with a metal bottom. I talk to them about how I could change my design slightly to make it fit.
They also wanted it stained darker. This isn't normally something I offer as storage space is my main issue with these trays and I like to keep a good stock of them and get them shipped next day. They offered to pay for stain so I agreed.
I think the finished tray looks pretty good, it's 1mm galvanised steel on the bottom (supported by 9mm plywood) and treated with Osmo oil. It was a pair of trays but I had the first already packaged when I saw the message from the customer about a picture!
Hopefully I'll get a picture of them in their new home as well!
Very nice. I could use one of those.
ReplyDeleteDrop me an email and I'll happily quote one for you.
DeleteI have never heard or seen such a thing, Kev - but seeing it, I understand its purpose. And looks great (as all of your work does).
ReplyDeleteAh thank you. This is one of the main things I sell! My bread and butter, but a bit of an alteration from my standard.
