I was wondering what you guys use as an altar.

Currently i don't have a good altar and am looking in constructing one.
For the moment i use a big granite stone that is elevated a bit above the ground, but its to low and it doesn't work comfortable.

Also, do you place your ritual tools on the altar? I place mine at the margin of the circle at their corresponding direction. It helps me see where the border of the circle is.
If you place the tools on the altar, then how do you see where the circle is?
(Astral vision perhaps?)

These are just questions i want to hear another opinion about, so i can keep them in mind when constructing my altar... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/search.gif) just searching for new ways to view stuff, keeping an open mind (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wandwizard.gif)

I have a traditional Double-alter....I just bought sheets of plywood, air nailed them and wood glued it and then sanded it down so you can barely see the line where the pieces come together. Then I just primed, painted, and finished! I love my double cube lol.
