Junk is something you've kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.

Great Job David, I never made one, do you have to tilt the table when you cut the bowl part.

Nice work David , I can see you have the same pattern book I have . I've made probably about six of this one and give them to my cousins several years ago , but this was before I started taking very many pictures of my work ............I have two different pattern books of this baskets .......
