It started with, "can you make me?" She wanted a small slim vase to store her knitting needles. She wanted it to be "different" I had some scraps of Canary wood, walnut and other woods that had no labels. I forgot when and where they came from, I think they were unlabeled Christmas boxes. Anyway I made it in the form you see to accommodate the tare outs and cracks of the the old unstable wood. Some had worm holes. She  likes it so all is good. 

That should do it!

 

How deep did you create the hole inside?

Lew, it is less than an inch from the base. When I drilled it, I knew that the whole thing would come apart. The middle section has 5 pieces. I went slowly and much of the unstable wood drilled easily.  When I finished drilling, I was totally amazed it was still in one piece.

I do too and I don't knit.
