Serving tray

[Bruce Mack]

I have been working forever it seems on a serving tray. Two were botched and thrown away. This iteration of cherry and ebonized oak looks better than anything I have done in years but because of bilateral cataract surgery with complications in one eye, I can't yet see well enough to glue the miters. I may be cursed. Still, it is a work in progress or at least stasis.

The ebonising looks fantastic. Hope your vision improves quickly and you get to finish off the project.

Thank you! Yesterday, after I posted, I saw my ophthalmologist and got her ok and a prescription for new eyeglasses. I'll have them next week.

It's finished. The miters look good. I darkened the frame interior. by adding a mixture of amber and red aniline dye to the shellac.
