Default need candle stick holder help

Hi all,
I've been comissioned to do a bunch of candle stick holders and was
wondering if someone can steer me in the right direction or web site. I have
to make about a dozen different holders for a craft fair and would like to
view different styles and shapes to get some ideas.
Thanks in advance
Dan



Try eccentric turning:

Scroll down to the very bottom.

You can turn these between centers also, just offset-turn each section
about 1/4" from center on three different axii about 120 degrees apart.
While at actual center, turn a mounting spigot for your chuck at the
base for boring out the candle cup hole after everything else, then
reverse mount the cup on a jam spigot in the headstock with the
tailstock into the base's center to finish off the bottom.
Feel free to vary this technique, it's just a suggestion.
