    Thanks everyone, I appreciate all the kind words!!
    Sorry I forgot to list the measurements, 6 1/2"W x 3 3/4"T,
    the top openning is 2 3/4" Initially wet sanded with Danish oil slurry,
    after it dried then added 3 more coats sanding in between, then rubbed
    it out.
    Of course you can steal anything you would like Mr. Hart, flattered I am!
    What other people burn, I turn! Found it in a friends burn pile...
    Hope I get something as nice from the other half of the blank.
    Bill (Batman), the HB idea sounds good to me .

    Mike, I obtained that nick name via. a large audience of past co-workers, however, no ties with the great one. I do though, study them, a very fascinating and intelligent animal. The avatar, signifies more than that though, still looking for someone with SMC that may recognize it.

    Great wood and turning! The half log it is sitting on ain't bad either.
