I think she got it for really cheap at an auction place right near where we used to live. I don't know what happened to it, but I wish I had it!

It was perfectly square (measuring tape in the pocket...) and smooth on the bottom the way wood is when it goes through a planer. <br /><br />The intent is either to deceive or shows a lack of knowledge.
