Thanks,

Variation on a joint stool.  NO, it's not where you sit and light up.  My first version - first project in college - featured the turned look, only it was patterned sawed legs.

First projects in MS were really just making up boards and then a box.  Looooong time ago. Used to bring in some tools once or twice a year up at school, and the class would contribute to making a board the old fashoined way.
