My brother Mike has always been my biggest fan and advocate. When I was visiting him last week I spotted this pyramid candle he has that I made more than twelve years ago. The base of the candle is made out of solid cherry with aluminum tubing. The cherry stock is laminated together to form a block measuring approximately five inches square. I then drill two inch and a half diameter holes on two sides of the block and insert inch and a half aluminum tubes. I then tilt the band saw table to ten degrees and cut off four sides, cutting through the wood and aluminum, creating a pyramid. All sides are sanded. The aluminum holds two tea light candles perfectly. I finish the candles with an oil finish.
