This month's woodturning challenge might take some of us back to basics. Let's turn a: (drumroll) candlestick!!

A few rules:
  • Only one entry per person and only one photo of the entry. This is a turning contest, not an old photo contest, LOL. So make sure your work is something you turned for the challenge.
  • Turnings submitted for the September challenge must be started no earlier than September 1, 2021.
  • Entries must be posted in this thread.
  • The deadline for posting entries is midnight Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) on September 23, 2021.
  • Voting will take place from September 24 through midnight UTC September 30.
  • The winner might have to pass a lie detector test before collecting the prizes. :rolleyes: Good luck, have fun, make shavings!! :)
When voting begins you are allowed one vote and once you have voted you won't be able to go back and change your vote. After you have voted you will be able to track the vote totals. The voting is secret (just like a real election) so nobody other than you can see who you voted for (not even the moderators/administrators). The voting will end at midnight UTC on September 30, 2021. In case of a tie vote, the forum moderators will gather in a virtual smoke-filled room to sort out the winner.

Is this a candlestick or a candlestick holder? Never mind, I just checked the definition of Candlestick

Just a little back story about Sebastian.....not trying to sway any voting. :) He is the youngest (and very active) member of the Bucks Woodturners - still in HS !!! Can't believe he hangs out with all us old guys.
