Thanks!

I saw this in Wood mag. years ago and started building them. Never got finished
but easy enough to build. My only real problem was not having a band saw. Sabre saw worked well though. Plans are not free though.

Long ago in Woodsmith; I built a set. Plans for the trays and stand are in No. 37, February 1985. Holy cow, was it that long ago?

I made 4 of the trays that Redman did. I used oak with walnut inlay. Turned out pretty good considering I had no idea what I was doing. My Mom & Dad still use them.

Thanks, guys!
I knew about the Woodsmith plans - I think I still have the issue...
Does anyone happen to remember which issue the WOOD plans were initially published in? I may have that issue, too...

I really need to start paying more attention to some things...

You need to log in to amazon to see it, but Ralph Bagnall made a nice design on his Woodcademy program:

You do not need amazon prime, but you do need to log in.

Just dug out my issue 122 and it's even the cover project. Our trays are worn out so I think I'll build a set of those myself
