I found it! I went thru everyone's blogs last night until I did. I had tried to describe it to my husband but he wanted
dimensions and bolt counts! A picture is much better.
It was at: http://lynnallisonstarun.blogspot.com/2008/08/its-taken-some-time-but-im-moved-into.html

My new studio space is almost done and I won't have to work just in a little bitty area any more once this workbench is made!
Those wood chops will be FLYING! I am also working on my blog and hope to have it up soon.

That is a very sturdy looking table/bench.

Have a look at the unit I designed....

www.woodblockart.ca/Press.html

It is equally as sturdy and had all the lovely paper/print storage
doors....
Very easy to make out of 3/4" plywood.
Note the piece hanging down on the end. This swings up for a large
table area when you are printing....

If you like this design let me know and I will send you specs and the
really simple method of
the draw slide system. I did not use the conventional drawer slide
units that is normally purchased at the hardware.

Hi All and especially participants of exchange #37,

OH WOW!! Amazing!!! Words are inadequate!!!! I loved the way the information was done, Maria, with the little image
next it so it was easy to know which print was which. I didn't expect them so soon so finding them in the mail was such a thrill.

Oh yeah, thanks Lynn, I forgot to announce...

HEAR YE HEAR YE, the hounds are released! Or, back to reality, Exchange(s)
#37 and #37a were mailed out earlier this week. Fine collection, especially
for those of us who "double dipped". Congratulations on a job well done
everyone and thank you for your continued participation on these wonderful
exchanges.

Everyone should get their prints within a week, perhaps another few days for
our international friends. Any problems or complaints, please email:
hahahathisemailisgoingtobounce@mariarango.com

Okay, seriously, if you do not get your prints in a couple of weeks, please
let me know. Really. Anyone missing their colophon can download it a bit
later this week when I upload all the prints and info to the Baren
galleries.

Everything seemed to take twice as long with a needy convalescent cat on my
lap. Any cat hairs on your packages are his; you can't email him to
complain, he spent too much time surfing all the .pet sites and is on a
one-week net-ban.

Maria

I got my prints today, too! They're really wonderful, maybe the best set of
prints I've received in an exchange. The tributes to Wanda were really
touching. Even though I never met her, I can sense that she was a very
special person. Thank you, all #37ers and especially Maria, the patron saint
of print swappers. Barbara C
