well all of your guesses could have been right, but what she wanted was a place to put things on the stove top when not in use kinda like a cooling rack but a board instead….
Nice work Comp! My wife will be jealous!
I thought she wanted u to make a serving tray so u could wait on her.
Nice Comp, where do you get your padauk.
I was guessing TV dinner table. It turned out nice Comp!!

thanks guys,
@glasseyi I get most all my wood from about 3 different local guys…..depending on what I need what they have and of course price, if it is low some times I buy way more than I need of different woods cause it will get used eventually……
Yeah. I hear you. Not to many locals left in the area for exotic woods. I have to order them online. And you can’t always see what you are getting. And you are limited what they have.

ya I’m so picky when getting wood I hope I never have to order online, thankfully there are a lot of guys into having this stuff here local, I just frequent 3 of them, I go to a couple others to see what they have but usually a bit more money but if need be I have them in my back pocket, that is another reason I will buy extra many times to stock up little of this little of that I still have close to 1,300 BF of Black Ash, 1″x6.5″ 8 footers I make stair treads 42″ by 10″ with a 1 3/4″ front slight bull nose. that is funny too, I will go 2 months and nothing then 3 people ask me for some all in same day…..I make them here and there just to have some ready as I usually sell them bare and put finish on them or let them.
here is a close up shot of the set I put in my own house with a Mocca stain and matte finish no ill effects after about 8 months…..
Looks good comp
