    They have been sitting there long enough that they might have turned into rocks. :rofl: :lol: They were put in place in the 70s. I didn't get to see the equipment used to move them but it must have been impressive.

    I have been thinking about getting into turning, and my tool acquisition disorder has been needing a scratch. PM inbound.

    Wow, you'd need a Costco pallet of FruitLoops and three cows to fill that bowl.
