Magic Wand Rack
Funny how projects spawn related projects.
After seeing Harry Potter #3, the neighborhood kids' demand for magic wands picked up. Made five and an extra handle, which turned out to be for a little girl in either North or South Carolina. With four of the wands in one household, there naturally was a need for a Magic Wand Rack. So, a little playing in Aldus SuperPaint, some birdseye maple ply, some claro walnut, some padouk and what may be rosewood, along with a piece of maple and some black or honey locust, it's coming along. There's also going to be a tiger eye cabachon and some crystal (actually plastic but that's a secret) balls. Turning the finials on a little UniMat has been a refinement of what I learned turning the wand handles. Doing one, winging it, finial is fairly easy. Doing two that match is a bit more challenging. So I'm doing scaled drawings, again in SuperPaint. Pics posted to alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking This turning thing can get addictive. charlie b |
