Very nice. This is an area of interest to me and I like this tray a lot.

Thank you,

I am not happy with the pictures, but it is my first posting, and I got them slightly wrong.

I tried to resize them, but as you can see did not get it quite right.

I certainly wouldn’t beat yourself up over that post! This looks great! I think you did a terrific job on this tray, and it looks like you’ve been doing marquetry for a long time. Job well done!

It looks perfect, I can’t believe this is your first, fantastic!

If you’re not satisfied with your images, you can click on edit, once you figured how to enlarge, & edit them.

Good Luck!

Thank you for your kinds comments. I have viewed most of your projects over the last few months (I log on 2 -3 times a day to check ou the new stuff) and must say I am honored to recieve so many kind words from such a talented crowd. Many of the projects leave me dumb struck with awe. I would really like to meet up some time and share a beer, but being based in the UK it’s unlikely to happen any time soon.

So, I’ll stop typing now, and get back to making sawdust

Many thanks Dick, spotted the EDIT button, once I was told DOH !!!, I’ll work on these. BUT unlikey to repost, seems a bit unfair on the new stuff. BUT

At least I’ll know for the next time.

Thanks again

I don’t think it’s unfair, if your upgrading the images on the same project.

I myself enjoy seeing a better image.

I’d go for it.

Hi,

I took your advice and sorted the pictures.

It took a long time to make, and it is my first posting, and well, I am quite pleased with it. It seemed a shame not to at least present it as best as I could.

So given the fact that nobody minded, I resized and reposted.

Again HUGE thanks for such kind comments from your all.

Much much better now!
