Lap Tray for Mother's Day

Lap Tray for Mother's Day
I thought I would serve She Who Must Be Obeyed (I have been reading Rumpole of the bailey) breakfast in bed for Mother's Day. But she explained to me that I was to stay out of her kitchen. So, I was thinking maybe I could convince her to serve me breakfast in bed for Father's Day.

Re: Lap Tray for Mother's Day
NICE! Really like the legs. What do you have in mind for the piece of “firewood” setting on the jointer?

The folding legs are a nice touch. Let us know if it works out for Father's Day.

Re: Lap Tray for Mother's Day
This is a piece of sixty-year branch wood from a mulberry tree. This and some other pieces were harvested and treated to prevent splitting while drying specifically for woodworking. The center is a tobacco color and looks like it has a very interesting, swirled grain. My first thought was to make something that looked like a bud vase. But doing the layout I think the curve would cause to much waste to make it look proportional. So, my current thought is to slab it and see what I find. Maby make a music box. I have an idea for using magnets instead of hinges for the lid. Any suggestions would be welcome.larryhrockisland wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2023 4:14 pm What do you have in mind for the piece of “firewood” setting on the jointer?
