SOLD Revolutionary War (replica) drinking cup

[Flintlock1640]

The end of the white oak log was a bit short for another tankard so yesterday I thought I would play some with it to create something new. The next to last photo is from the Encyclopedia of the American Revolution. I hope you like my interpretation using a rotten looking log originally cut in 1819 with 300+ year old wood. Since this is cracked and looked old to begin with I just put linseed oil on it inside and out to make it look old. No drinking out of this one. $35 plus shipping

That's too cool!
And it's older than me, and most of the rest of us!

Send it to me. I'm in Texas at 77380.
I'll pm you later with my details.
Thanks,
Brazos

Howdy, Flintlock,

They continue to look great, OP.


I need to fire up my wood lathe.

I've had a Black Locust short starter in mind for a while now.

Too fast Brazos,

I got the cup this evening, and it looks better than the photos.
Plus, it has a cool history, so it'll have a prominent spot in my display of treasures!
I'm pleased, and will be watching for Flintlock's other offerings.
