It's the festive season again and everyone needs a candle holder (or give it another name if you like)
So a new challenge - between now and the 15th December 2009 make a candle holder that will hold a candle this size. 10 or 12 inch and about 23 and 20mm diameter

Rules
- Supply any wood/steel/alliminium/brass/copper whatever you like
- must suit this size candle
- must be made since this thread started
- can be composite woods/materials
- can-be carved, turned nailed, bolted, screwed, hammered, knurled whatever you like.
i think we should have three categories (you decide which yours fits in - honesty system) (A) simple or basic - (B) intermediate - (C) extravagant I think if you go in the obviously wrong category the voters will vote accordingly.
A bit of work to go on with planning but i think you take the photos, the size will be known by a 10 or 12 inch candle in position, Probably limit of 4 photos (what do you think) Either i or (hopefully) a mod will volunteer to set up a judging thread A,B,C and the members vote for 5 days from 15th to 20th December.
Now i think as a nice touch and in line with the christmas spirit they should be given to someone - maybe an aged care facility (yep an old follks home) for them to put their christmas candle in. Or a hospital - i'm sure you can find someone to take it.
Prizes
First - Bragging rights + 3 extra drinks at Christmas (supplied and paid for by the contestant)
Second - 2 extra drinks at Christmas (also supplied and paid for by the contestant)
Third - 1 extra drink (yep you guessed it - Buy your own)
OK so what have i forgotten and any takers.
Cheers
Christmas challenge - Candle Holder 
Good idea. I've been working on a design for a candle holder. Will give me a reason to do some.
