Multi-Plane Table Commission

This week I've been working on another commission - building a multi-plane table for Bethan and Harry to use on the Kodak film competition. It took 6 hours in total to build, across 2 days. All of the materials were found (apart from the screws), which helped to keep the production budget at a minimum. 





What Went Well
  • This helps test and keep up my carpentry skills
  • The found materials (eg. the wood), kept the production value down
  • It took a relatively short time to build which is good when it comes to commissions (I enjoy jumping straight into a project rather than planning for it)

Criticism
  • It took a long time to get all four legs to be the same height without power tools
  • It would have been better if I worked out how much I was charging before I made it
  • I find it harder negotiating a price with my friends compared to charging a stranger for my work
