Mike,
A couple years back I was going through a Habitat ReStore and saw these 5' wooden columns that were round, tapered and hollow. I was looking at them wondering what I could do with them, so for 10 bucks for the pair I grabbed them. A couple weeks later my wife wanted a lighthouse for the yard, these things were perfect for the main body, I just cut a foot from the bottom and top then added bases and the top pieces. I wish I had a photo to share, but I'm really bad at that.
