tealight candle holder
« on: May 08, 2016, 06:19:55 PM »
I wantrd to try drilling some blind holes for a future project, so I made a tealight candle holder out of graveyard point agate.  I started by drilling 1.5" holes 9/16" deep, then i drilled a series of 12mm cores the same depth and chipped out the cores.  Fresh flowers from the garden too, pardon my dust.

Lovely piece and that's a stunning way to display the pattern in the stone!
