You've heard me rave about the beauty of Mythic Crafts's slate frames before. Mark builds beautiful frames, boxes, thread keeps and needle minders from scratch. Here's a quick view of the goods.
https://mythiccrafts.com
The company has recently moved from Canada back to England, and the costs involved in a relocation mean that Mark's newest products—trestle stands and table frames plus resin cast needle minders—have to wait until he can presell the goods and invest in new tools and materials. So he is going to do a fund raiser and have a massive sale on existing products. Mark is also going to sell slate frames that are finished with Danish oil instead of 8-10 layers of urethane, which is very time consuming to apply carefully, let dry and then sand before the next layer goes on. These will be cheaper and just as well made, but not finished like high end furniture.

Now is the time to invest in one of these beauties on sale if you have been eyeing them. The sale lasts until the end of February and will be advertised on Mary Corbet's website tomorrow, so move fast!
UPDATE: Mary Corbett has written about Mark and his products and the sale. If you are on the fence, you might want to read what she has to say.
