You are - the competitive portion of the Round ended at 6PM EST.

I would not have awarded you Bonus points had your guess earned them, but will award 5 participation points.

By your last minute guess you remain eligible for an Appreciation Prize (see Page 8).

Congrats to the point earners and especially MCShilling for pulling down the win.

(Time to tweak my "in the money" formula.)

Thanks again for the contest NS.

Oh oh.

Maybe the container will eventually be behind a sheet of uncut bills or inside one of your exquisite pieces.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Actually the Round 4 container is one of my pieces! It's a Norway Maple bowl I turned on my lathe. It now belongs to one of my sisters.

It's difficult to judge by photo the size & wall thickness of the bowl - however the scissors and nickels are all of standard size to assist in your guessing!
