PROBLEM #1 Expensive Shipping

The size and weight of Persian Meels make them very expensive to ship worldwide.

PROBLEM #2 - Moisture and Splitting

Persian Meels made from timber with a high moisture content will dry out and in most cases crack or split in a dry environment and become lighter as the moisture evaporates.

I have spent the past couple of months drafting Templates based on my own Persian Meels that I brought back from Iran.

The templates provide all the information you need to make your own Persian Meels.

My ultimate goal is to ensure that you have the best information to have your Persian Meels made close to home.

All you have to do is find a woodturner in your area.
