    I hope this video gives you some ideas on how to make your own trays. This is a great project to batch out. You can make several trays in the same amount of time as it takes to make one.

    Fantastic project, Billy. The design is extremely classy. I think that you should make a matching napkin/plastic holder to go along with this, but by itself it is great.
    I know that a lot of TH-cam watchers love the big, complicated projects, but there are also many novice/weekend woodworkers out there watching that live for these relatively simple projects. Thanks for thinking about us and thanks for this video.

    - VERY, VERY nice piece. I particularly like the handles as they allow the board to use both sides for serving or a tray. I don't place tabs on either side of my boards in order to give my new owners the option to use both sides for serving. In your build, both sides can also be used for serving. The handles make a nice stand. Thanx 4 sharing.

    I have a dumb question. Aren’t those handles effectively cross grain construction? As the board expands across its width, the handles won’t, but they’re glued in. Did this end up being a problem?

    • @NewtonMakes
      @NewtonMakes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The tray would have to expand a lot to cause an issue. Probably more than possible. At this width and thickness, plus the fact that it's multiple boards glued together, it won't reach that point.

Explain to us how an end grain to face grain glue joint is as strong as a mortise and tenon joint? The dowel will increase the tensile strength by at least a couple thousand pounds of pressure. Along with the shear strength that multipliers immensely.

      My Uncle Chuck used to be Shop teacher. At the beginning of every year he gave a talk, "OK, now, how many fingers do we have? Let's count 1, 2, 3...10. Now, how many will we have at the end of the year? Let's count..." From there he went on to more detailed safety instructions on every piece. Being as this was West Virginia he did have one kid come in already missing a finger. Guess we can't blame him for that one.
      BUt, yeah, I was watching him do those pits over top of the saw blade and I was getting anxious for his safety. :)
