aluminum | brass | bronze | Composite | stainless steel | Other Metal Gallery Here are some Candle Sticks I've Turned up in the past years. Just bordom on my part made with various materials From S.S., Alum., Bronze, Brass and some exotic Plastics. This all made from scrap, billet material. I just thought I'd share some of my scrap, I try not to waste anything and with the cost of things today I beleive it's the smart and GREEN thing to do. I've probably made around 25 sets of Candle Sticks for people in the past 8 years. I kept the ones not worthy as gifts, but I still like em! |

The worth of worthiness
Not having a lathe anymore, I have had to resort to using the bandsaw creatively. I have made a few wooden bowls with only a bandsaw and they turned out quite well. Someday, I'll convert my old drillpress into a juryrigged lathe and then see what I can do. Alas, no time now since I am playing with foldforming and shapeshifting . . .
