Very nice idea. Will see how SWMBO likes the current setup in April, and
if we need to change anything. Thanks for the layout.

Does anyone have a picture of this arrangement?
If no, does anyone have Forest's email address?

I have 3 photos and Forrest's permission to publish them. I'll scan tomorrow and try to get them on the net.

Excellent photos, John. Thanks for posting. Forest will be happy to hear
his concept is finally getting some exposure.
Thanks for sharing.

layout I uploaded the pictures of the construction and how it was put
together, sorry it took so long Forest. The pictures are out of order at
this time. I will see if I can straighten them out tonite sometime. There
are 17 pictures in all.
