Couple of simple bits I knocked up for Christmas.

 

Ring from a cedar we felled about a month ago.

Candle holder from a Big Cone Pine we dismantled about 12 years ago and I just had lying round the workshop meaning to do something with one day.

how did you stop the cedar ring from cracking radially?

 

I fear you may be asking too soon. (If it was only felled a month ago.) Sorry Mark!

It will split for sure Alan, but hopefully not before Christmas.

 

I could screw a plywood circle to the underside.

It would probably still split but not move, if that makes sense?

 

That would ruin the aesthetic for me though, so we’ll just see how long it lasts.
