I was playing with the idea of making a napkin holder (not rings) with
a lathe. The result would be round but yet hold the napkins
vertically. Part of the thought was to make the holder look like two
circles standing vertically then attached on the bottom with a block
of some sort to hold the circles together. Then I wondered if anyone
had ever been able to make a napkin holder of one piece of wood and
perhaps cut the center out with a saw after attaching a base at the
bottom. Anyone every tried anything like this or know of any plans or
pictures? Searching this group brings up lots of things on napkin
rings but I did not see anything on holders. Thanks.
