[TheForge] Mastermyr Replicas

[Steve Smith]

Mike, something like this sounds good--a site that would really like to 
have it as opposed to packing it away after a couple of months. I don't 
know that it would be a permanent exhibit anywhere, but regular use is 
the idea, I think.

If it is just going somewhere for 'storage', I'll take the chest back 
and get some use out of it while it is 'stored' at my house.

Steve
who spent a lot of time on the chest
