I Don't know what it is

Other than me seeing an idea and wanting to try making it this has no use at all, I have had fun making it and there are a few things I have tried for the first time.

The process has involved me making 2 of the top pieces so the fun is not over yet, I will soon start to make a base for the second one.

When I first saw something similar it did look impossible which is what drew me to having a go, the one I saw was in a dark wood it was also photographed at an angle that made it difficult to see how it had been made

I chose a light wood thinking that this one was just an experiment and that I would use some dark wood at a later date.

The base is made of another native wood of New Zealand and is turned to 2mm thick where the piercing is, the piercing is all new to me, I won't go into the difficulties I encountered but to say I am pleased with the results even if I was 3 days doing it, anything good takes time.

My statement of this having no use is not true as I do like to see it and brings me pleasure just knowing that I have done what at first looked impossible.
