Well done, Mcshilling. I really was pleased to see someone else take the round, but I'm infatuated with Nickelsearcher's pieces of art, so I I'll be in the final round.

... math to estimate the container volume.

Lots and lots of math and white out for the scrap paper. Lots to take into account but I'm guessing a lot of my success has been double negative assumptions cancelling each other out.

Nickelsearcher, you have put a lot of time and effort into this contest and your fantastic pieces and I hope you are pleased with the turnout.
I'm taking a guess this round but will stay clear of what I feel is the actual count so as to not interfere with the other players guesses and finishes. Best of luck to everyone.

Round 10 guess- 1000

I appreciate your kind reply @Petespockets55. Some thoughts in response:

That guess gets you to 100 points for the contest, and the contest championship. Congratulations!

Well done indeed. There are 9 players with a path to the contest podium - and with your generous deferral perhaps one of them has a better pathway to get there.

You will soon have your choice of the 4 available Main Event prizes. Go back to the opening pages of the contest to review them.

I hope you have a lifetime of enjoyment with my hand made wood artistic piece.

Best of wishes to the Players for the final two contest podium spots!

Congratulations Pete.
If by "she" you mean your wife, she will love it.
My wife keeps "her" Christmas coins on top of mine all year round.
The "COA" is still in the box.

It was nice to see that box friend Keith67, and I'm pleased that it has found a special home in your lives.

Yours is a design I no longer build - so that makes it a very limited edition box indeed.

Alas there is no pathway to the podium for you in this contest - but you remain eligible with a Round 10 guess for one of the two Participation Prizes.

That would earn you one of my famous Sergeant of Time clocks.

JSYK - jbuck is a collector with two of these I believe. It would be good for him to report in and tell us how they (his David clocks) are doing.
