The neighbor girls (4 and 5 yrs old) saw a Harry Potter movie asked me to make them wands. All of the Harry Potter wands are turned, and since I don't turn, I decided to whittle a couple for them. Tree limbs and scraps were the basis. The whittlin, just foolin around. The two that I made for the neighbor girls have turned into "all their friends wanting one". Mothers started tryin to buy them from me. Who'd ever thunk someone would buy one of these! They are fun and quick. Tom H Last edited by Tom-H; 07-30-2008 at 10:49 AM. |

I'd buy one! I can see those being popular with little kids - even big kids. Patrick |

Great work Patrick. I know turned ones are very popular and these are even cooler I think. Nice job. Corey

Way to go Tom, they look pretty neat. How long are you making them? I have a young grand daughter that would probably like one herself, maybe I'll give it a go. Cliff |
