Beautifully crafted and eminently practical. The same moulding, filled with shot would make fine weights for holding patterns down too. 

I love the punch-work. Its like brogue got an upgrade.

Stay Safe.

Thank you.  These weights can be used for anything in your shop, including holding patterns and rulers etc.

Ah! I'm so dumb! I actually thought they were needle cushions because I've seen something similar, though not so proficiently made, used to store needles but it was just a lump of wadding inside and not very heavy. 

You've got me thinking now. I'll have to check what offcuts of wood I have that I can route a former out of to try that. Thank you for the inspiration.

Nah you aren’t dumb.  I’ve seen some of those needle thingies and I can see why you might think it.  I never had a use for them.  I just stick all my needles to a neodymium magnet on my bench.  Don’t have room or a need for a fancy needle holder :)

beautiful work do you have a machine for those patterns or do you hand punch them? Its an awesome look.

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

Thanks Chuck!  All hand punched, with care.  No machines here :)
