how thick are the floorboards and how are they fixed to the ply? Potential movement would worry me here. I do like the top though, it will look lovely with a finish on it.
9mm glued in place. Edging is glued & screwed into the ply.

@Jester129 thanks.... I think the GHD bit the dust and got replaced by Dyson and assuming the cost must be made of gold !@Padster, I LIKE that! Beautiful front and hasp. Have to ask though, is the hairdryer a solid gold GHD one?
These look ace!!finished a few more end grain cutting boards in different designs this weekend

That is brilliant! I need to add this to my list of 101 things to do with an old bicycle tube. What a great idea.View attachment 98140
This flexible elephant was an experiment inspired by previous comments here. A cyclist recommended saving old inner tubes and using the rubber and a reply in a turning thread which suggested super glue to mend cracks.
I made slots in the body sections with a dovetail saw, ran the glue into the slot and was able to slide in a strip of tube and clamp it to pinch the slot. I am amazed how strong the bond is. Its a bit fiddly but with practice should become easier.
The wood is Turkey Oak from a tree in our garden and the wheels old tent pole. The ears are felt from an old Loan Rangers hat!!
So nice.
How are you going to attach screwdrivers and chisels to the cleats???
Cheers James
NiceI did this for my dovetail chisels. Screwdrivers I’m not going to, just bits for a driver.
