    Mark, an incredible piece of wood, nicely shaped and beautifully finished. I like your bowl's bottom. Really great job! Terrific pictures!

    Only problem I see is that it is not a platter.....Oh, that was yesterday....never mind....

    Okay, who is the gremlin messing around. I meant to say I liked the bowl's bottom. Your bottom, Mr. Cothren is not something I care to discuss at this juncture....

    I have done so much with so little for so long I am now qualified to do anything with nothing......

    P.S. If you are interested in plans for any project that I post, just put some money in an envelope and mail it to me and I will keep it.
