Well, I am nearing completion.  Joel Bain, bainjs, built the box.  I bought a bag of glass beads and a piece of glass for the "raft" in the swimming pool.  The veneer looks much better in this picture than in person.  We won't talk about my first veneering attempt.

The plastic jug is full of glass beads, the rubber mallet is for hitting the box to make the beads settle.

I screed, and screed, I don't think I can scree any more!  Now to bring it upstairs and float the raft.

The box and beads weighs about 30#, the turntable another 30#.  I have four Audio Quest sorbothane pucks under it.  I think they will go flat!

Grainger, It is projects like this that keep me inspired. Simple in some ways, but labor/time intensive. Most importantly, effective in the end. Think of what some company would charge for such a product, and it probably wouldn't be EXACTLY what you want. That is the very reason that I make as much of my own things as I do,   I have certain expectations. Don't ever stop experimenting.
