Well it was a really tough choice but Amber and I worked through it. We printed out the list (thanks Scott) without the names so we wouldn't be influenced to pick ones from friends. The following list is the result. Please vote for your 2 favorite names. Voting will end on July 13 at 8 am.
If you don't see one of your names up here don't think you have lost. Remember there are 4 other prizes being given out. Those will be announced after the poll is over. Thanks for participating.

This was fun! WOW it was overwhelming reading all those names! I thought it best I not see who sumbitted them so as not to be influenced! I can almost guess who said what!!!!
Good luck and like Tony said there are 4 other prizes so don't assume that you lost!

Hooray! I don't see any of my suggestions on this list, so I'm calculating that my chances of winning one of the other prizes just went up :-) Thanks for the fun contest.

There were a lot of good names! The T&A one just really made me laugh, and I liked that he included me! I am the marketing genius of this operation, LOL! That's why he had to ask all of you for name, he didn't like my ideas!
Thanks to everyone for playing, as usual it was a hoot!

Thanks Tony! As I stated in my PM, now I want to see what this turning stuff is all about. The Wikipedia topic on it is pretty lame. Please post some pics of the process when you have some time!

BTW... I got my box from Tony. My kids and I opened it up right next to Scout's kiddie pool so we could dip everything and check it out. (Yes my wife spent $10 on a kiddie pool for the dog. Don't ask, I don't know.) Everyone has their favorites. Really fun box. I'm looking forward to working with it however it's the convener with the slabs I got from Tony Catmandew and Mary Ann StonesthatRock. That's the pile of stuff that so nice that I'm afraid I'll ruin it. Once I get some results with my practice material I hope to move on to that stuff... someday.
