Mystery Salt Shaker

[bmac]

This is my take on the mystery salt shaker that was featured in the latest Woodturning Design mag. A pretty simple and fun item to make and could be a good gift giver. The only thing I ended up changing was the size of the hole in the funnel. The original 1/8 hole seemed to put out too much salt. I plugged that hole and redrilled to 1/16 and that seems better to me. I guess it would depend on ones taste as far as how much salt is too much. The wood is maple with just a beeswax finish on it.

Bobby,
Very nicely done! Cant make out the plug fo sure. Did you recess the funnel or is the
bead at the bottom the second piece? Either way it is well hidden.
