I don't (yet) have a subscription to Creative Woodworking & Crafts so I stopped at the grocery store on my way home tonight and picked up a copy.
I have to say your Welcome to the Nut House plaque just tickled me right down to my toes. I'm definitely going to have to make that.
Where'd you get that large but pointy sanding attachment? I think you called them grinding in the article. Is it what they call a grinding stone? (I just have a low-end Dremel rotary tool and have no idea what many of the "bits" are supposed to be for.)
I do love that pattern though. It totally cracked me up. Thanks.
