hello;

in francis whittaker's blacksmith's cookbook
on page 45 is a project entitled 'by candlelight ii'.
the project is for basket candlesticks.

i am having trouble visualizing how to make the twelve
1/4 x 11-3/4 rods all the same or what type of template
he is referring to. he says to 'shape on form'. anyone
have ideas on how to form the basket rods?

my first thought is that he had a three-dimensional jig
he built for this project.

after thinks about it more perhaps he used two different
size metal balls connects by pipe/rod to create the form.
