Wand Stand

I made a small handful of wands when I first got the ShopSmith as a lathe. Since then, the wands have just kinda been floating around the house on random surfaces. I finally had enough and decided to make some sort of display/stand for them. There's been a scrap of white oak that's been on the shelf but unused for a couple years now. It's a live edge but about 2" at the narrowest so not good for much. I took that piece, cut it into 3 pieces, and stacked them for a 3D mountain-like effect. It's finished with 1 application of BLO (for color mostly) with shellac+BLO on top for finish. It was a fun project as a functional "artistic" piece with no planning.

The wands, left to right, are -- wood from a Christmas tree, dyed maple, purple heart, white oak, and padauk.
