By Royal Appointment !!!!!

[Keefie]

The Cornwall Air Ambulance is having a visit from the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall (Prince Charles & Camilla) on 17th July. They contacted our woodturning club aksing if we could make a platter with their logo inserted in it to be presented to the Duchess as she is their Patron and it's also her birthday. Another club member is making the platter and I have volunteered to make the logo. I already have a pattern for the logo as Paul (Grampa) was kind enough to make one for me previously.  Does this mean I can now put "By Royal Appointment" on my business cards?? if so , Paul can also put it on his patterns lol.

work in progress pictures attatched. I'll try to get a picture of the finished platter before it gets presented, then I'll post it here too.

 

Keefie.

Nice pattern. Careful not to mix it up with the Winebulance - you might cause an intra-national incident.

Know why sharks won't eat Royalty? Too many splinters.

Tell Camilla I said hey from Ohio.

Hold those business cards, I'm afraid as the platter was requested by the ambulance service and not directly by the royals, am afraid you gunna have to wait for that MBE

How come you didn't make the platter as well Keith??. A man of your talents could manage that, no problem. Scrollwork superb as usual. You'll be lucky if you get a handshake, let alone an OBE.Poor old Grampa probably wont even be there. . Well done never the less the pair of you.

You can always put it on your r?sum?.  . Anyway, you can boast and we can only wish to get such an opportunity. Good luck with the finished product. Waiting to see the Picts.
