Candle Centerpiece
Photo: Woodsmith Magazine
This centerpiece is made of Curly Ambrosia Maple and Mahogany legs. I modified the plan to change the number and size of the candles, I added the wood dowel pins which hide #8 wood screws that secure the legs to the body after glueing, just for extra strength. I used the Masterpiece 1,2,3 finishing system and it made the wood colors really pop.
I recently saw this plan in an old woodworking magazine and thought it would be fun to use some of my more exotic woods. I modified the build process a bit and also inserted contrasting wood pins in the legs. The key to this project is clean tight dados.
