Perfectly good glasses broken so I can fix them

[TellicoTurning]

Here are some more sets of perfectly good glasses that I broke so I could fix them...

I used Spectraply colored laminate woods for the stems and finished with two coats of Old Masters Sanding Sealer and 3 coats of Minwax wipe on poly. The glasses themselves all came from a local Dollar General.

Do you have any way to use the glass stems for a turning related project?

 

[CREID]

Maybe turn the upper part from wood and glue the stems to that.

Awesome glasses.

I don't reuse the stems, but the bases make great lids for small boxes or salt cellars..

Is the one on the bottom right side Osage Orange?
It sure looks like it.

No Osage... left to right they are
Spalted Hackberry
Spalted Bradford Pear
Magnolia
Cherry
White Cedar.

I've always wanted to try these. Maybe someday.

Very nice, all things being equal. I like the one on the bottom right though.

Man that is a cool idea.
