Neat effect! The two colors of wire look good.

How did you deal with the ends?

Great job Dan, the extra mile with the carving & wire was worth it & realy adds something of difference, the Claor gives it a sort of medieviel look about it to my eye. :: )))

Scrappy,

This is super! Everything about it is just delightful! How big is it?

You really nailed the look—got the cinching just right! Thanks for sharing.

Sorry. Forgot to put the size.

8 inch diam X 4 inch tall

sras; I made 2 holes part way through for the ends, instead of threading it all the way through. Then pinned them in place with a brad nail. Seems to have worked.

Thanks for all the great comments everyone.

Nice job! Great concept! And I’ve learned that if the wife likes it, I should put down my tools before I ruin the piece…

Great idea and great job. Not sure I would have the patience to strip the wire though.. I would have to get some naked wire from somewhere..:) I have no patience…

Interesting twist(pun intended). Nice job.
