An LP record stand crafted from a single Timber plank found on Sydney shores. Sorry no before shot :(. Despite the great erosion of the timber due to an extended time at sea it revealed great colour and beautiful grain when sanded and varnished this in turn creating a great contrast of surfaces. The rear leg and front ledge are fixed to the body with wooden pegs. A circular rebate is added to the rear surface to assist lifting and the red horizontal stripe and number stamp were added to compliment other items owned by the recipient of this item. I have no idea what species of timber this is or where it floated in from only that the over all form is from dimensioned timber and the rounded edges and attacked surfaces indicate it has been adrift for some time.
