Thanks. I hope that some of it gets a reader to think
"Hell, if he can do ___ I sure as hell can.", and maybe
laugh when the screw ups happen, then figure out a
fix and keep going 'cause that's the fun part.

Now back to Santa's Elf Mode - have an A&C table lamp
prototype to do for Ex #2 -by Christmas. It's in redwood
and she'll decide if she wants it in mahogany or QS oak.
Will leave the staining for her to do. I've learned that
when it comes to color. with her years as a picture framer,
it's wise and prudent to have her do the colors. Hell
she can distinguish between a hundred shades of gray.
