On a whim, with no planning at all, I attempted a corkscrew as a gift for my wife for Valentine's day. I used a bandsaw to cut the top part that became the heart, and over did it a little. Originally I was going to make the heart even, but as I was attempting to do that, this showed up, and I liked the way it looked. The tapering down to the screw part is ugly, and honestly, I just didn't feel like dressing it up as this was a first go and there was plenty else wrong. Finally, I have the screw going the wrong way. So it works, but messes me up whenever I try to use it. The heart makes an easy spot to pull from when removing the cork.
