This little live flower test tube vase is cut from 1/4" thick wood. I used Baltic birch plywood for this prototype. It would look nicer in a hardwood.
The project requires a 20mm X 150mm glass test tube. I buy mine on Amazon. Here is a link to the last order I placed.

Ad: AffiliateOculus Go Standalone Virtual Reality Headset.
If you need a great and fun gift for someone in your family who loves tech this is a great choice. I own one of these devices and love it. The Oculus Go does not need to be connected to a powerful computer. It is not one of those cheap headsets that you have to put your phone in. This is a true standalone VR headset.
- Personal Viewing: The littlest, big screen. Crystal clear optics and state-of-the-art 3D graphics make your headset feel more like a personal theater.
- Viewing with Friends: Watch with friends. Meet up in VR with friends and fans from around the world to catch live sports, concerts, or just your favorite TV show.
- Portable & Easy to use: Ready when you are. Experience portable, all-in-one VR. That means no PC, phone, wires or hassles.
- Controller: Effortless control. Whether it's navigating to your favorite shows or to a far-off land, the intuitive controller makes getting there a cinch.
- Built-In Audio: Surrounded by sound. Spatial audio drivers are built right into the headset, providing dramatic, immersive sound without the need for bulky or tangled headphones. Oculus Go also features a 3.5 mm audio jack.
