Turned Wood Laser Pointer

Laser Pointers - good for tormenting dogs and children, and with the excuse that you need it for work...These turned wood laser pointers though - they're something unique and classy. I'm sorry to say that they're not cheap though. The minimum I can offer them for, because of the unique tools I need to make them, and the cost of the parts, is $65.00. BUT if you're looking for a unique gift for the man or woman who has it all, this can do it. The pointers shown are from bloodwood, ebony, and olive. Or you can choose any of the other woods shown on my web page if they're available. I can also create inlaid or laminated custom designs but that will cost extra.

Olive Wood Consecrated Oil Vial Keyring

Some olive trees have been alive since the time of Christ. A long-lived gnarled tree with a short bole, often with numerous holes and cavities, olive wood is one of the world's most beautiful woods. Heartwood is light brown to dark brown with irregular streaks of grey, brown, and black, giving a marble-like appearance. Irregular, interlocked grain is dense, turns easily and cuts very clean. These aromatic blanks are selected for figure and color. And aromatic isn't putting it mildly - when cut, this wood smells very strongly of opened green olives and olive oil - I guess that shouldn't be a surprise. In addition to its beautiful caramel and chocolate swirling grain patterns, olive wood has special religious significance that makes a consecrated oil vial especially treasured and unique. It's somehow fitting to use olive wood to store the olive oil. For an additional $10.00, wood from prunings of live olive trees in the Holy Land can be used.

All my LDS Consecrated Oil Keyring Vials are made from gold or chrome-plated parts. A unique, handmade, a perfect gift for any Elder, whether dad for Fathers Day, brother for Mission Farewell, or a son for his ordination to the priesthood. Inside is a glass vial that can just as easily hold perfume or essential oils.

Base Price (African olive wood): $25.00; for wood from the Holy Land, price: $35.00
