I have never made anything using wiggle-wood (i.e. bendable ply) that had a conical shape. Though, perhaps I could cut wedge-shaped pieces and form it that way. However, I know that getting the edges of the ply to lay flat can be a challenge. <br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Attached is an image of what I am considering.
