    I thought about it, but I can never get all four legs of whatever I'm building to touch the floor at the same time....

      I have the PERFECT piece of stock for it, 10ft x 10" x 8/4 highly figured tiger maple. Just don't know what I could do with it. That would be a pretty small project. Based upon the folks behind the contest, Tauton Press, I am thinking there would have to be dyed inlay, maybe some turning and bent laminations involved. It is going to take quite a bit of creativity. Unfortunately, creativity is something I don't have a lot of!

      Now, if someone has the perfect project and is in need of the material maybe we could split the tools . . . .
