candle stick assembly

This is how the candlesticks are put together:

Threaded rods and nuts hold them together. The stainless steel tubing is used as spacers for the aluminum.

Underneath piece of aluminum are nuts to keep the the whole thing tightly together.

At one end of the threaded rods are two nuts welded on that have been cut round on the lathe.

In this photo I am making the nuts round on the lathe.
