The perfect wand

Hello everyone, I just have a few questions about a wand I'm creating. I picked up this branch today, from a local tree, stripped off the bark, sanded it down, and it has these tiny holes, does it mean it's infested with insects? And would my wand be more powerful if I added quartz crystals to it, along with a copper rod inside? Please help!

a simple crystal wand that we can make requires only a piece of copper
pipe, say around 6 inches long, and two appropriate sized crystals of
our choice.

Our first step is to acquire the piece of copper pipe or tubing. We
then take the piece of tube to our local craft market/crystal shop and
allow ourselves to select two pieces of crystal, which may be similar
or different crystals, that fit snugly (in part) in either end of the
tube.

We may choose to glue the crystals in place

Okay, thank you.

you are welcome-- you might want to dedicate your wand after you create it

dedication:

When you finish choosing or making a wand, you will want to dedicate it to magickal work. The ritual should be short and simple: place the tool on the altar, cast a circle, and perform a short ritual to consecrate the tool. If you belong to a specific Witchcraft tradition, use the ritual specified by your tradition. If you are an eclectic Witch or still undecided on tradition, make up your own short ceremony, possibly based around a poem you write.
