Plans for THIS PROJECT: http://wordsnwood.com/plans/tray'>http://wordsnwood.com/plans/tray

This is an excellent starter project because there are only a few pieces, put together with very basic joinery, and yet the end result is a classy and useful serving tray.

I built a version of this tray over 40 years ago in 7th grade shop class. I decided to revisit this project and make a new version. I first drew it on the computer in Sketchup, and used that to make 1:1 plans that I could easily trace when cutting out the parts.

It has the classic lines of midcentury modern projects, and given that my own tray has lasted 40 years of use, I think one that you build should last you for a long time as well.
