thanks for the replies.
to nero:
my altar is heavy, and the 2 pieces it stands on are heavy to. It's heavy work putting it on the right place in my room each day and then placing it back.
By the time i am ready to do my ritual i am out of breath.
I like the idea of smaller altars along the circle, then i can place my elemental tools on it. I like the way your altar looks, especially the bread and drink are a nice touch, I don't often take food within my circle, perhaps i should do that more.
to kinjo:
I use a compass to, and the quarters are not aligned to my room, its a bit strange, when building my house later i am planning on a circular room for my ritual space (IMG:

I don't have many tools either, a dagger and a pentacle. I would like an altar that is about waist high too.
to Frater V.V.L :
I'm thinking of building a double cube also, do you have wheels under it?
I would like to be able to shuffle my tarot cards when standing up.
Do you have doors in it to place ritual tools in?
I'm still a bit confused (IMG:

- A lower altar is handy when i am doing long meditation, my current altar is ideal when doing that. I can place some tea on it etc... I even have a small warmer with a candle where i can place my tea pot on, so it stays warm during those long sessions, i often read books that way inside my circle, and i stay in it for about 2 hours then, its nice to have hot tea even at the end of those 2 hours.
- It would be strange to meditate with a huge altar towering above me when sitting down. But then i can shuffle my tarot cards more easily at the end of my daily rituals.
I have some thinking to do, before i construct anything.
The Altar, What do you use as altar
