Greetings All,
It's been some time since I stopped in.
Yesterday was like Christmas in August for me. As you see the mail man came by and left me a package.
Some of you may remember the "Itty Bitty" contest held hear on SMC, (2005). Many of you that are new hear may not be aware of it.
Trying not to get to involved with a long story, hear is the skinny of it.
In the package was the plaque I won in the contest. The original glass was broken in shipment and Keith O was so kind to acquire a new glass and laser etch it. He in turn sent it to the man of the hour (can't say it hear) Mr. Keith Burns. Keith milled the base and mounted the engraved glass and mailed it to me. It is one outstanding piece of work and I will cherish it forever.
The thing I am most proud of, it was maid in the USA.
THANK YOU to each of you Keith and Keith.
The plaque is below -- 6x8" the table that won the award next to it and a turned goblet on the table. Some of you have a limitless supply of wood, but I am rather frugal.
A link to the Itty Bitty contest, well worth taking a look at if you have never seen it. The best thing that ever happened on the turning forum.
Thanks for looking, and THANK YOU again Keith and Keith. Bill.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
