Silver anniversary

No not my marriage, though we will be celebrating ours in Aug this year...

Nope, this is my 25th wishing well since I started playing woodworker. A friend of the owner of the hunting club I belong to, seen the one I sold to the landowners daughter back a few{8-10} years ago. That year he ordered 4 for his grown kids. Well this one was ordered from one of his boys, for his child's wedding.

Just borg pine & cedar shims for shingles with Helmsman spar finish...hope I'm still around{and able} for their next generation

Those whose eyes are working will notice the fascia trim was an afterthought{the side view surely gives it away}

What a great tradition. Great work Ken.

Very nice work. Are they typically a wedding gift of sorts? That would surely look nice tucked into a corner of the yard....

well that looks sharp but your yard does to ken you got that spiffied right well

Man you do great work, that is just beautiful.

You do build some pretty cool stuff Ken

Thanks guys I enjoy these as they are cheap & simple{like me} to make. I should mention that these 25 are of the large variety {5' + tall}. I have made a ton of smaller ones as well... Most of the folks that I've dealt with, keep them for themselves & fix a liner of some sort in them and plant flowers inside. I did find a photo of a couple of the smaller ones from a few years ago...

Not that I'm aware of Though I would say over half of the ones I've made 'were' for wedding/anniversary gifts, as the purchaser usually requests the receivers names & a date be placed on them.
