I saw a wall sconce in a restaurant this morning that I like. It was made of metal but I was wondering about doing it in wood. I did a quick SU drawing to illustrate what I remember seeing. Ignore the wall plate. The part I'm wondering about is the curved channel. I was thinking that I could laminate it up around a form and then use a router to cut the groove. I haven't quite worked out how to create the angled sides in the channel but I have a coulpe of ideas.
So my question is, what do you think of the idea of doing that channel in wood?
