No general rocks board here so I guess these are sculptures. E-cig holders or displays that I have been working on (off and on) for the last six months.

The wood is aromatic cedar which at one point had my eyes swollen almost shut from the dust. I gave the leftover wood away because I am not real fond of my eyes swelling shut. If I make more there will be a wood change. When I was getting close to finished I found a bunch of brass corner protectors in a basket at Ace Hardware marked 75% off. I bought all they had along with some brass strips, hinges (decorative) and knobs. Should be enough to keep me busy for quite a while.

To attach the stones I just put on the second coat of varnish and stuck the stones in the wet varnish. They are stuck really good.

I have finished 15 and have one larger one still in the works. Next step is to get them to Billings to a smoke shop that is looking for something to use as displays. Gunna make her an offer she can't refuse.

The first is the only one that does not have a stone on it.


















These were a lot of fun to make but there probably won't be many more. I haven't totally finished a cab or anything else for a long time so I have a large backlog of those plus I have another idea in the works that has been on my mind for two or three years. Time ta git er done I think.

People are probably going to want the display stands too
