Princess Bride fan. :P If I had made this I would have left the natural edge too. It was so beautiful. Still amazing work and I love the end result. :D - Heidi
Thank you! I thought about leaving it natural but decided to clean off the grit because it will be used with food. It was pretty though...I agree. I maintained the basic natural shape as best I could. :)
Very nice. As you were getting more and more aggressive with your tool selection while carving out the dished areas, I fully expected you to eventually grab the chainsaw. It does help us though seeing how each of the different tools held up under normal use. Thanks!
Thank you! The initial change from the Proxxon was because it was a poorly designed tool, or a defective product, that burned out on me. The other tools, like the angle grinder is one I use often in carving, and seemed right for the shaping tasks. Sometimes I just break out tools because I haven't used them in a while too 😊
It is made from maple, which is a wood very commonly used for utensils and cutting boards. I recommend doing an internet search for food safe woods, for anyone interested in that topic. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the idea!
My pleasure 🙂
Great looking tray. Any woman that cuts down on the amount of sanding you do is a keeper!
Thank you! Hahaha, so true!

As you wish!

Thank you! hmmm....definitely using a chainsaw next time! 🙂
You can say, “It’s only mostly sanded.”
Awww! ❤️
Thank you!😊
Well it seems that Ma' Lady was right...rustic does look quite good...
Yes indeed! Thank you!
Very nice tray. Question: Why the change in tool types, as you progressed through the project?

So loooooooong
haha, yes it is!
Please advise what wood are you making the tray from. Also what woods are safe to use with food as some woods are not safe.
