    Thanks Toni, Keith, Ian, and Artme.
    Keith, that is a fine piece of turning, and the excentric pedistil and finial are ver nicely done.
    Ian, my Cindy Drozda DVD set just arrived so study time is allocated.
    Artme, it is too bad that we live so far apart, I enjoy wood trading but the shipping to Australia is a bit steep for log chunks.

    Nice work Gil and Keith. (If your piece only got a third in the Novice section Keith, I don't think I'll be entering for a few years yet).
