    Default Wow, cool design

    My son sent me this design idea. I thought I would share the cool picture. What an easy assembly.

    You could use that to fight off the dino puzzles!
    Or as a nutcracker in the nut bowl.

    G Smith - I just noticed something in the pix that I don't recall seeing before. It looks like the ends of the tab insertion slots have little tee's. Did you use a very small bit and by creating those tee's you end up with a square end for the tab? Russ

    Russ, Sorry if you thought I made this. I have not yet. Mine may be bigger though.
    My son passed on the picture to me as he is taking a cad/cam class at college and the class was studying the design.
    His class assignment is to come up with a creative item too. He wanted to share the assignment and thus I wanted to pass on an exceptional example of work to the community here.
