Bottle openers
Bottle openers
What to do with all these scraps? I glue them together and make semi random shaped bottle openers typically from maple, walnut, ash, or cherry. Some are glued together scraps while others are made from one piece of wood. No two are the same.
The opener part is a simple washer but I can use a quarter too. Give me a special year (wedding, birthday, etc.) and I'll try to find a quarter for that special occasion.
Great for a basement bar.
Finished with multiple coats of boiled linseed oil.
Various shapes and sizes. Most common shapes are 'Comma', 'Circle', and 'Whale'.
