Hi all, recently there has been a lot of felled trees for an upcoming new bridge, and as a result the place looks bare
anyhow, as the weather was nice i took a walk and found a lot of wood that has not been chipped and just left (the area was cut a few weeks ago), and as it was healthy (ie not cut due to poor condition) thought i would give it a good home.
So i now have a load of wood that i don't really have a project for!
As the wood was free, i would like to use it for something that may sell on ebay, so thinking the generic tealight holder or similar.
the larger bits can be cut across and the larger have 2 or 3, the smaller ones maybe 1 ont he edge and make small stand with the scroll saw.
so any tips on how to finish it off (can the bark be left?) and also what forstner bit size is needed?

the wood will either be sawn by hand, or with the mitre saw, and may experiment with different cut angles..
