Not sure why, but I was looking at this thing again. It's really too bad the guy drilled the holes on the bottom all scatter-shot. As I could easily re-do the top and sides in a bigger size and put them in line or better yet mill a flute over the whole section of holes. On the side the flutes could run level into the clamp cuts. Then all the sharp edges could be smoothed and the surface polished. Still would be questionable for use but would look great on an over the top period TT build. Maybe the holes underneath could be added to and made into some type of pattern...........

If you want to send it to me I would dick with it in my spare time just cuz I like to save stuff like that. Better than making it a hat rack in my opinion.
