Wow! I am amazed at your detail. Acorns, leaves and all. That is really a beautiful pot rack you have made. Nice work. Thanks for posting the pics.

Great looking rack, John. I just had a couple ask me if I could make one for them. They haven't given me the go ahead yet, though. Thanks for posting. :D

Very nice, just don't send the pics to Deb, she'll want ME to make her one!

Frosty the Lucky.

Uh oh, my wife just saw those pics. :o

Great work, sir!

Very nice looking! I would be nervous about the wine glasses and pots sharing space though (of course my wife favors wine glasses that cost up to $60/each). You might want to move the light too as there could be a lot of shadows beneath the rack. Or maybe install a lightbox type fixture that would diffuse the light enough to prevent any hard shadows.

When I get it done I will post more pics. I forged 16 more leaves this evening and 8 more acorns. Bad creek - I cut the heads off of 3/8" lag bolts and welded them on the ends of the branches and then screwed them in the rafters.

how did you fasten the branches to the ceiling?

Looks Great!! I like the coloring you've done! Now if you can talk your wife into investing in some of these colorful pots to add some bright spots:

Le-Creuset

Outstanding job, I love the attention to detail, that really is a wonderful piece.

Details in post#9 this thread.

It's beautiful. Would love that for my kitchen!

Wow!! Wow and wow again, very sweet..........and I've been looking all over the place to buy one.....maybe in a few years I can attempt it! Nice work, and my wife has not seen it........she doesnt have the $$ to hire you!

I was amazed with your first pics and now that you have finished it I stand in awe. That is the finest looking pot rack I have ever seen. It is one of the finest anything I have seen. I aspire to become a fraction of your ability in creating art. Amazing.

I can't help but think "why are all the photos of that amazing coffee table upside down?"

Very, very nice.

As a woodworker, I'm a big fan of white oak, and that just makes your artwork more appealing!

Thank you all for your feed back and kind words. I have been busy with commitments and hadn't had time to reply. I am having trouble finding the lights I want so I may have to make them. I am working on a coffee table design but it will probably have to wait for winter. Once again thanks for the kind and encouraging words.

John
