[TheForge] Mastermyr - Fire Grid

Mon Jun 10 22:32:00 2002

Thanks a lot. I didn't keep track of hours; it covered about six months 
of spare time. If I'm really moving I can put together the wood parts of 
a dovetailed chest in about 12 hours. The MM chest took quite a bit 
longer as I hadn't done one like that before (now I've done it about 
three times all told!).

I think Rob said that the number of items made were in the mid 30's, 
with the find being in the mid 70's.
