SERVING TRAY

$29

Every once in a while, it’s nice to scale things back and build a simple project. You’ll find a little bit of everything here — from coves cut on the table saw to band-sawn curves to a glued-up cutting board. Some of the techniques, like the table saw coves, may seem a bit challenging at first. But there are plenty of step-by-step instructions to make building your own Serving Tray a snap.
