The house smells of fresh ground chili's and it was tough sleeping last night. To describe the small is a cross between fresh ground coffee with a touch of chocolate . So much better then buying the cut chili powder in the store. I should add some Guajillo pepper and smoked chipotle but buying 5 lbs cases would last me years.

Side question and again another derailer of threads - that table used for food prep. In your home? Looks like it is used well - I like it. Wish I had a kitchen large enough for something like that.

The story behind that, that top was in the restaurant that I did my apprenticeship at. The cutting board had been in place since 1954 and they were pulled since they were grooved from use. The underside of the board is almost bowl shaped with I .75 inch depression. The board has been sanded several times since I made the base. I am redoing my home kitchen now and I am trying to figure out how to incorporate it into my cooks kitchen. I also have a very tight space also. I am going to expand into the breakfast nook area which is useless, and move things around so that it will work.

Too bad R2R doesn't allow selling and trading non-reef related products. You might have a market!!!

Thank you for the compliment, no 2x4's in the case work. The stand can move with the nylon casters on the bottom when the tank is full, and has in the past when I need to so some upgrades behind the cabinet and ethernet wiring.
