    Kruger,

    Well done, worthy of a greenie. It seems the French excel at the off centre turning.

    Trickie. How did you do the hole for the candle in the lower holder?

    Looks great.

    Ah ha!!! The cup is joined on the top isn't it?

    Kruger, never saw before such a candle holder, but you did an excellent job with this one.

    Absolutely stunning!

    Your procedure is almost understandable in principle, even the second coring offset under the top. But I reckon the sequences aren't so simple. Did you keep notes of the operations? Or WIP pics? Or a cartoon of the cuts?

    Thanks for posting such an interesting piece.

    That is a wonderful double candle holder. It took some deeper thinking and sketching, I think.
    Thanks for posting the pictures. You must have a lot of time on your hands, to do such turning.
    Well sculpted!
