Shell splinter

Hello everyone.
In one of my recent trips I found a big chunk that used to be a 88mm german shell. Sawing that one of the driving bands is still present, I decided to bring it home. And after a run in the electro bath, some red paint and a small diameter hole in the right place, it turned from a loaf of rust into this: IMG_4659.jpg IMG_4660.jpg IMG_4664.jpg
A working scented stick holder! That is more appealing to my better half than the piece of rust that i brought home. :xd:
Hope you like it. Have a great evening.
M.
