Large Serving Tray This tray is made of Oak ply veneered with Olive Ash Burl, Walnut sides and Cocobolo corner details. The finish for the tray is a combination of various clear finishes polished with auto rubbing compound on an orbital sander. The sides are finished in orange shellac and clear lacquer. Because the tray is too wide to go through our bedroom door, it has handles on both wide and narrow sides!

Bill carved 32 of these whimsical shelf mice with a Dremel tool, using plans from a borrowed woodcarvers' magazine.

Eyes are seamstress' pins, shortened and epoxied into eye sockets. Whiskers are black paintbrush bristles, individually epoxied into holes drilled by microbits (1/8" shafts), obtained on the Internet from www.ehobbytools.com.
