Baltic birch plywood bottle stoppers

Hi all,

Here are a couple of photos of some bottle stoppers I made recently. They are made from Baltic birch plywood (you know those scraps you have sitting around you donâ€™t want to throw away because you might use them someday. I finally used some.). I glued them together and cut them apart and glue back together several times to get different patterns from the layers. They are dyed with a water based fabric dye I bought at my local art supply store. The finish is multiple coats of Krylon Crystal Clear Gloss spray, lightly sanding between every couple of coats. The stoppers are from Ruth Niles. Thanks for looking. ~ Paul

I like that. How do you keep the plywood from fragmenting?

Thanks for your comments.

Herb - Use sharp tools and don't be too aggressive when turning this stuff.
