Guitar-Shaped Shot-
Glass Holders
This was a very interesting challenge! We did a bunch
of these for a well-known hotel/casino chain that has
a rock music theme. They actually used the shot-
glasses to hold miniature desserts! (At least, that's
what I was told.)
The challenge came because the main deck that the
shot-glasses pass through is angled up and at the
same time the shot-glasses themselves are tapered.
The result is that the holes are not only different
sizes, but they are not round or even ovals. They are
sort of an egg-shape. There is a name for this shape
(produced when a plane cuts through a cone at an
angle) but I can't think of it right now. Maybe some
of you can e-mail me the name!
Another challenge was that we had to machine both
sides of the aluminum. We engraved the company's
logo into the top deck and gave each one a custom
abraded finish.
