longer legs needed!

People in Japan all have these wonderful heating tables.  Big problem is the legs are too short so you have to sit on the flour!  For 30 years I've been doing that.  But this year I decided I'm getting to old to get up and down like that and why shouldn't I fix the problem?  So I found some wonderful boards, cut them the right length, took off the old legs and scared in the screws to hold the new legs!  Now I'm working on a patchwork quilt that is large enough to finish the kotatsu.  (Japanese hot table with blanket covering the edges to keep the heat in.)  Hopefully I'll finish before Spring when it will no longer be needed!
