Default Nut bowl ideas...

Not plans, just ideas. I'm wondering what, if anything, Wreckers have
personally done in the way of making a nut bowl. (Personally, preferably,
as opposed to random web sites showcasing things no one here has ever
actually made.)

I'm a long way from being able to turn a bowl, and I don't even have the use
of my lathe yet, so I'm thinking in other directions.

I want something with holes in it for the cracker and picks, obviously, and
something to hold nuts.

Pretty, preferably, and it of course _has_ to be made out of walnut.
Duh.

I'd like to come up with something pretty quick like, before I eat all the
nuts.

(That's why I gain weight this time of year. I can't stay away from those
damn nuts!)

I'm thinking of a board with a big hole in it, with a regular plastic/glass
ceramic bowl in the hole, and some kind of little raised doohickey with
holes to receive the cracker.

I'm also thinking that's pretty lame, and surely someone can come up with a
better idea somewhere between this and turning something on a lathe.
