One of the things I most enjoy is turning a piece of wood that has a special meaning to someone. This is from a maple that my wife's grandfather planted. Cousins grew up playing in it's branches so I hope this will bring back memories to the cousin it's going to. I'll drop it of in GA on the way to Richmond.

Very nice Bob, I agree that family stuff is the best and being more significant to the person recieving it. Nice job indeed.:D
