Google will turn up a few how-to's on these, but there's nothing complicated here; just applied CoG (Center of Gravity). I used a wine bottle filled with water to test each stand. I drilled a 1 3/8" hole straight in, gave it a little chamfer about 6 1/2" up from the bottom. Next, I cut a 45 deg 'foot' and test the balance. You can calculate the point of incidence and cut the angle exactly, or make small adjustments by eye. I find that somewhere between 43 - 45 deg works.

Then you can shape it for eye appeal.....or not!

I've always liked them. Friends I give them to are fascinated by them. It takes so little sometimes.

this is too cool.

Pretend Im five years old and allowed to use dad's miter saw and explain it again?

Id really like to do it so that the bottle mounts on an absolute 90-270 horizontal... Can you explain the math?

Cool! Love the variety of the curvy designs and shapes and the wood colors as well. They are great gift ideas. Great job!
