Waney Edge

[Kepis]

This afternoons project, waney edge tray (12x10 inch), wood used is well seasoned Hazel which i ripped down, bottom planks are old roofing batten, would have used Hazel, but didnt have as much as i thought, so batten it is for the time being, was going to use quartered Hazel in the corners, but couldnt get it to work right with my limited dexterity, so opted for squared posts instead - far easier ;-)

Nice work Mark, very rustic looking

What plans have you got for all these boxes and trugs you're making?

The garden is choc a block with trugs and most of the trays will go in the greenhouse, some of the bigger trays we are using to store apples in at present

Cool projects. Would be nice to see and hear a bit more about the construction and design. What works and what not to do. Handy think to be able to make a box/crate.

Post up what you do make

I will, but until my arm sorts itself out I have to be gentle. Not too many power tools or hammering I'm afraid

Know what you mean, I'm currently recovering from an autoimmune disease that left me paralysed, been 18 months so far, but I'm slowly getting there, little steps, hmmm that gives me an idea for something to make

Well, you're doing damn well, my friend. I'm impressed more and more with every picture you post
