    Default Umbrella stand - plans

    I hope this is in the right area.
    I am looking to make an umbrella stand for the hallway/entrance.
    I have searched the web and this sight but can't find anything suitable.
    I would like to turn one. ie a large 'bowl' at the bottom with supporting feet and an upright up the center with several rings to secure the umbrellas in place. I'd make a copper insert at the bottom to catch the water run-off.

    Any ideas or plans around to help?
    Thanks
    Lyle.

    There are a few plans out there, you will just have to look around then modify one to suit.

    3 places to start - #1 & #3 have both free & pay plans.

    Thanks for the links. I had found them too during my searches. Always seems to be the square-ish ones.
    I'm looking for something that I can turn on my lathe.
    I'll keep looking.
    But it is looking like I'll have to design one up from scratch.

    Growing old is much better than the alternative!

    Thanks sprog,
    just what I wanted.
    I was thinking along those lines for the design.
    I'll show SWMBO to see if the design suits her decor.....
