As mentioned in another thread I have started on a wooden lid to go on a replica brass trade kettle. Construction is from seasoned ash, most 1/4 inch thick, glued with aeromodellers aliphatic resin which is waterproof when dry.
To be honest all I have to do now is drill and put in 16 leetle pegs to hold it together and sand it some, since I'm a tart at heart. The design is copied from the lids you got on washing coppers. No doubt it will get charred some unless I just use it to slow heat loss/ things dropping in when its off the fire. As a rule when its on the fire I'm stirring a lot of the time anyway.
