A wand (sometimes magic wand) is a thin, hand-held stick or rod made of wood, stone, ivory, or metals like gold or silver. Generally, in modern language, wands are ceremonial and/or have associations with magic but there have been other uses, all stemming from the original meaning as a synonym of rod and virge, both of which had a similar development. A stick giving length and leverage is perhaps the earliest and simplest of tools. Long versions of the magic wand are usually styled in forms of staves or scepters, often with designs or an orb of a gemstone forged on the top.
In ecclesiastical and formal government ceremonial, special officials may carry a wand of office or staff of office representing their power. Compare in this context the function of the ceremonial mace, the sceptre, and the staff of office. Its age may be even greater, as Stone Age cave paintings show figures holding sticks, which may be symbolic representations of their power.
The magic wand can also symbolize "tool"-ness. A wand isn't an actual physical tool (e.g. a gun, hammer, screwdriver, etc.) with practical physical functions, but it can aid the user to manipulate the world around them. Following an occult definition of magic— "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will"— the wand represents the means by which the Will causes the conformity.

After making wands for me and my wife, I wanted to make one for my daughter so that we would have a complete set. We looked online for ideas, and once she settled on a design I turned the wand from a piece of mahogany. My wand and my wife's wand both feature carved elements, but my daughter wanted something a little different. I engraved the swirl pattern into the handle and then painted the swirls with gold enamel paint. The wand measures 14 inches long, and is finished with Danish Oil. This is the first time I've tried recording myself using the lathe, and in hindsight I should have known that the camera location wasn't great. Live and learn. I enjoy making wands, and I wanted to have a little fun at the end of the video. It's nothing special - just playing around in After Effect...

A few years ago, I made myself a magic wand for a Harry Potter costume party. I only just now figured out how to make it work. My attempt at the Incendio (fire summoning) charm. Background Music: "Diagon Alley" from the soundtrack to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
Will you be there when the fire turns ardour
Will you be there when the fire turns ardour
'cause it is more than a flame of the night
will you be there when the sun is goin' down for good
will you take care that it's alright
My friends and I were in a party mood
'cause we were sick of all that solitude
I saw you first down in your favourite club
bought you a drink and showed you what I've got
and you loved me till I cried
Will you be there when the fire turns ardour
'cause it is more than a flame of the night
will you be there when the sun is going down for good
will you take care that it's alright
I'm so afraid that you will leave again
my soul was searching for a suchlike man
a one-night-stand was what I had in mind
now my emotions give me difference signs
will you hold me when I cry
Will you be there when the fire turns ardour
'cause it is more than a flame of the night
will you be there when the sun is going down for good
will you take care that it's alright
Will you be there when the fire turns ardour
will you be there when the fire turns ardour
(more than a flame of the night)
Will you be there when the fire turn ardour
('cause it is more than a flame of the night) baby
will you be there when the sun is going down for good
will you take care that it's alright
Will you be there when the fire turns ardour
'cause it is more than a flame of the night
will you be there when the sun is going down for good
will you take care that... will you take care that
