Rolling Pin Displays and Holders

Lew, very nice. I’ll have to admit, I’m usually not much of a fan putting a heart in a project, but I like the way you inlaid the heart in that holder. Well done and looks very nice. Now that I said that,if you look at the last project I posted, I incorporated a heart in that design. What can I say….........I’m guilty. lol.

cool designs lew. these will really compliment your beautiful pins!

Thanks so much for the kind words.

Huff- The hearts were my wife’s idea. Since my entry into a knot like no other, she as been “hinting” for this design for Christmas gifts.

Darryl- I was trying to think of a way to have the two go together, besides the same wood types. The one with the arch has about the same “arc” as the pins.

Lew, you have a gift for seeing passed the typical designs and making the most clever pieces. The heart just makes the whole project stand out.

has your wife seen them or are they a surprise?

as always they look great…I would love to see a picture with the pin resting on the racks to see how that works (ok I COOOOOUUUULD figure it out…but I was always told by my teachers there are no DUMB questions—-even when asked by DUMB—-EEEZ…

Matt- She has seen them, the holders and rolling pins are Christmas gifts for friends and relatives. I will take some pictures of them together as soon as I can get back in my workshop. Everything is moved because they are coming tomorrow to replace the furnace.

Lew thanks for putting the pictures in my head for one that I need to make. I spent 25 years working in kitchens love to see the rolling pins! Nice job

For Matt and Wooley- here are some pix with both the pins and holders

This is a Sepele, Walnut and Maple pin (Thanks Karson!!)

This pin is Maple and Walnut

The small holder. It is just used to keep the pin from rolling off of the counter- and hitting the dog in the head- during dough preparation.
