This is my version of a toothpick holder I first saw on Youtube. I fell in love with the idea and here it is as I saw it. Everyone really likes the fit and finish and really love it. It is built of laminated cedar with a cherry ball pull.
This is my version of a toothpick holder I first saw on Youtube. I loved the idea and everyone who has seen it has been delighted. It is a fun project and a great little showpiece.
Think I'll trick anybody?
I've read the posts about the toothpick holder article in Wood Magazine. Unfortunately when I went to the bookstore I couldn't find the magazine, so I had to wing it. It was fun to figure it out on my own...I like a challenge.
The plug/stem/lid is all one piece.
Or is it?
Turned from Sapele (from Wizzy). The "lid" is walnut, and the finial & "collar" are Maple.
Measures 5"x2.75". Finish is 3 parts each DNA, BLO, & Shellac (recipe from E. Bud).
