Been kinda slow in here lately so thought I would put up some of my Hollow Body Ornaments. Woods are Ambrosia Maple, Walnut, all with Holly Finials.

Thanks for looking.

very nice Roger. I like your finials!

They really look great.

How did you hollow them and did you make the hangers.

Arlin,

I do all my ornaments with a set of Mini Keltons. I shoot for 1/8" thick on the walls. And I order my hangers off the internet. I weighed a couple of this batch, they are right at 1 1/2oz each.

Gorgeous work!

Holly is such an amazingly beautiful wood. It's hard to believe it's natural.

Nice work Roger. What inch stands are you using?

Thanks for all the kind comments, much appreciated. David, my ornaments tend to be pretty long, so as a minimum I get 10" hang height or longer stands.

I was real happy with the selection and service from these people.

Those are very nice Roger. Nice work! Thank you for sharing.
