Serving tray from plans from one of the magazines. A neat little project. The base of the tray is 6.5” x 16”. I made this and the wife and I decided it would make a good gift. Now I have to make 5 more for Christmas gifts!!! It is maple and walnut. I had a really tough time clamping the sides while gluing but I learned a lot!!!!

Wow this is a really neat project did you bend the walnut or is it cut out like that?

Beautiful tray! I love the angled sides with the curved ends. Do you remember which magazine the plans came from?

That looks great! I have been planning to make that tray as well. The plans are from last month’s woodsmithshop.

Very good looking tray! If I was gluing those difficult joints I would glue angled blocks to the sides and bottom over bits of newspaper, let dry overnight, clamp and then knock them off and scrape the paper away. It’ll give you perfect joints with ease.
