Step 3: Sharpen the Base

The crook was designed to be put into the ground once and left there, but we're going to be pulling it up and moving it around all the time.  To make it easier to get in and out of the dirt, you'll sharpen the points at the base.

Using some sort of metal grinder or file (I used my dremel tool), make rough points on the bottom.  Don't make them too sharp, you don't want to accidentally stab yourself or someone else in your ecstatic enthusiasm at having a portable drink carrier.
