Very nicely cut.  I am sure you scored some points with that one.  Thanks for sharing the cutting and the stand pattern with us.

Hey Frank, ask and you will receive, here is a copy of my pattern., I'm pleased I can give something back to the "family" here in return for all the help I have received. Dont forget to leave little joiners in the letters otherwise you will have floaters falling out.
