Outstanding tray! Your craftsmanship shows off well with this piece!

Nice design on this holiday project, how many beer before the creative juices started to flow, to many will upset the overhead cost of the project. I like the modern looking handle as well and the curly maple is just icing on the cake…thanks for drinking and posting LOL…Blkcherry

Beautiful and elegant serving tray, well done! Quick thinking in response to the wife too.

Wa-La, that’s funny. The actual saying is french and spelled “voila”. My wife is french and I think I will start saying it like you wrote it just to get under her skin. We only tease the ones we love.

BTW. Beautiful tray.

Wa-La is Redneck for voila. I was a wonderin what the heck Larry was a sayin to me. Take n took whatcha callit, half dozen a one six of the other. Thanks!

This is a beautiful tray!

I also like the handles. This turned out wonderfully, as it seems like a very cohesive and complementary design overall.

Now you just have to make another one for the craft fair. Great wood combination as well.

this is so beautiful! :) I really love the modern hardware, it makes a sleek addition – much preferred to cut handles IMO.

I agree with the handles for this particular project. I think they keep the cleaness of the piece going. It’s funny, when I built my tray,http://lumberjocks.com/projects/31450 my wife and me had a shorter version of the handles you used here in mind, but then decided to go with a bit of a curve, as we felt it better complemented the horseshoe shape.

I definitely like your use of the mitered corners and keys. I think the keys are another “clean” line, as opposed to the pocketholes that I used.

A very “crisp” tray all around.

Again, my compliments to the chef!

I like the handles too. Nice tray and good job, especially for just ‘tooling’ around one day. I hope your wife liked it!
