Just finished up this wine glass holder for my brother and his GF. It started out with a plan that included coaster holder spots but with an errant design change it turned out even different than what the first design change was supposed to be. It’s walnut with a coat of watco natural, one coat gloss lacquer and two coats of gloss polyurethane on both pieces. The brass stopper is from Ruth Niles.

I have done some that were a bit different never thought of the stopper or the hole to hold it.
Some are less than perfect by a wide margin. I was burning off scrap flooring and thicknesses varied with the different times in the shop
and the templates I was making. I finally settled on one not sure it is in the pic

women have trouble understanding Trump's MAGA theme because they had so little involvement in making America great the first time around.

Careful.... This is the type of project that your wife can decide 2 weeks before Christmas that she'd like to have 20 of them for her friends.
