Wow - I did a search for "NYC" and "New York City" and this thread was in the resulting findings...Glad it was, too - That's a beautiful piece of work, and it even came complete with a bit of history. Thanks for sharing!
Best regards,
Evan

Nice save Andy! It must be great to get John Hart to come out of the bushes and make a post! Ohhh, now I see that it's a "Blast from the past."

Nice Andy, but it's still upside down!
I actually love the form and the wood. I have some pine I salvaged from an old house. I may have to see what's in it now!
Be a mentor, it's so much more fun throwing someone else into the vortex, than swirling it alone!
I'm all too familiar with days like that.. Then whooohoooo it works.

He must have used Moxie to put back together because there are no glue lines.
Great save Andy, job well done.

Hey Andy it is a beauty. That has to be the save of the year. Well done. Yep if John came in out of the woods it had to be good.
