    EDIT: Sorry folks. Doug has asked that this entry be removed from the contest. It developed some unsightly cracks that just aren't repairable. He's striving to produce a replacement.

    I've been wondering for a long time... why do the threads stick replies "below current depth"... it drives me nuts

    Jonathan - Would like to answer that for you, but sadly I have no idea what you're talking about. Perhaps you could re-state your observation.

    Reminder !

    Just a reminder to get your choice of charity in as the poll will be going up in the next day or two, and a reminder to those of you sitting on the sidelines to post some of your work, a chance to raise a few bucks for a good cause AND show off your efforts. Scott

    Sometimes when a thread gets too long they hide some of the posts... when you scroll down the list of posts at the top of the page there will be a "post" that says "More replies below current depth", which you have to click before it shows all the posts. I was just wondering why it does this instead of adding more pages... not a big deal though. Maybe it just does it with me... got a customized forum account or something

    Hmm. Never saw that before.

    Go into your User CP and click on Edit Options.

    Towards the bottom of the page you'll see that you're set up to read in the hybrid mode. Try switching to Linear-Oldest First.

    10" Locust Bowl

    Group Catch

    This is either a real big ice cream bowl or a small salad bowl. (if you eat less salad it leaves more room for ice cream) It's a new form for me with sort of an Ogee shape to it. It's some type of locust, black or honey, you decide. About 10" x 4.5 " with lacquer finish.

    Kurt, just beautiful ! Love the form size, and wood. Locust dry is tough, and as one who has not been able to finish a piece yet, I would say you did an outstanding job
