Service after the Sale...
Some time back I made this tea-serving tray:

The build steps were mentioned in this thread:
https://forum.shopsmith.com/viewtopic.php?t=3371
Lately, my wife and mother-in-law, enjoying their own indulgence -- a nice granite machined "Surface Plate" they installed in the kitchen -- noticed that the tea tray wasn't sitting flat any more. I turned it over and eyeballed the two bottom edges in "winding stick" visual style. A few strokes with the block plane got the tray sitting dead flat again on their "measurement surface"

It's not as grand as the other projects I've seen on the forum but her is my first completed project. It's a silver tip brush with a Bacote handle.

If you are a part time band leader, does that make you a semi-conductor? Where do all the "unguided" bombs go?

Thanks,Dave. I am pretty certain the figured veneer is Carpathian elm burl. Although a bit dark, I think it is from age. Here is a shot of the fallboard decal. The fallboard was NOT stripped, as the decal is no longer avail. Even the ones that were, cost upwards of 200 dollars! Now the bi#% is avoiding me! I need the balance due badly! jimsjinx
