I got some wine glass blanks from Craft supplies and turned some walnut feet for them, these are for my daughter. They came out real nice, I was able to get them glued together so that they are straight and centered. My only question is how well the finish will hold up on them. I used 4 coats of wipe on poly and then buffed them. They look nice now but time will tell. The two bottle openers are made out of some small shed antlers that I have found over the years. I took the metal opener part off of some inexpensive cork screws and epoxied them into a hole drilled in the end of the antler. I polished the antler parts with my beal buffers and they have a real nice shine. The openers are for my two sons. We are opening gifts tonight so I am anxious to see them opened up and used. Jared
