   Well, I'm from Brush Prairie Wa. which is N.E.of Vancouver Wa. I've been building and developing properties for 30 years. Just started getting serious about furniture about 4 years ago. Here is a link to some of my work.    http://www.woodworking.org/imagepost/users/00002233/index.html

   That is, except for that incredible demi-lune table. That was the "Best in Show" winner at the Best of the Northwest show last december. Created by Don DeDobbeleer from Etna Cal.   That same show will be Dec 3/4 this year at the Portland Convention center. Mark your calendar!!!!It's a good one.Currently shown on pg 30 in the mar/apr issue of Woodworker West magazine.

   I am a very active guild member, and am currently working on a contemporary piece for a show in May.

   Got the popeye handle because I spend a good bit of time boating.

   Len, you saw this message, great!  I sent you an email just now, before I saw your response. 

   Hmmmmm, gonna try that link to your table:http://www.woodworking.org/imagepost/users/00002233/index.html

   Ahhhh, that's better.  Hey, you Knotsheads, click and take a look.  BTW, Popeye gets the award for "Most intriguing show-and-tell" on Saturday.  The guys were gathered around the ellipsis jig for a l-o-n-g time!  forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)Another proud member of the  "I Rocked With ToolDoc Club" .... :>)

   Actually all the "math" discussion was on the large radius circle jig, not the elipse, Trying to figure the mathmatical method to the curve, and angles of the guides, rather than the hit and miss method which I've been useing. I did save the formulas, and learned that I should have paid better attention in math class!!! It was a good lesson!!!  Len
