ok...Frank, that is the best idea yet...also the empty bowls project is
a good exercise.

Mel, I really like your view and yes, the scrap bucket needs to be used
more often.

However...I heard a story from Soldner one day yrs ago, others may have
heard this same...

He was visiting a friend and there on the dinner table centerpiece was a
VOCO of his. He liked the piece, but did not recall it. As he was
admiring it he stated that he did not remember giving it to them. They
replied...you didn't, we found it in the dumpster.
