Hey all- I am looking to see if anyone has or knows where I can get a pattern of a Latte stone. I have a friend who is from Guam and he wants me to make him some and I figured it would be easiest to produce one on the Carvewright. It is a fairly easy pattern to make, but I have not mastered creating one from scratch. Any help will appreciated. Unfortunately I don't have one to scan. My friend has one that is made into a necklace from a giant clam, but it is $300 and I didn't want to take any chances messing it up. I spend enough money on woodworking; I don't need to buy any broken jewelry.

Thanks, Bill

Here is a picture of what one looks like.

This link may help you see how some folks market the replica of the original stone pillar. I would think the jewlery would be similar to the lathe turned version.
