Is this a Strathearn weight?
« on: March 26, 2014, 12:49:43 PM »
Hi All,

This ended just over a week ago on ebay, I couldn't quite decide on the maker, A Strathearn experimental? Or something else? Anyone know.

Hi Nick.

I would vote for a Strathearn piece, possibly by Dave Moir - he is still making some very similar pieces when working at John Deacons. It would be worth asking him what he thinks - but I don't have an email for him, I'm sorry to say. He does go to NPS meetings though.

Hi Alan,

Thanks for that, I pondered over this one but in the end didn't bid as I was unsure of its maker.
