Default "Found " wood
This was in my Mums attic - I did this when I was 12 or 13 years old ('76/77') and found it again today! The photo hides so much.

Druid, It's my guess there has always been some latent talent in your being. That was very nicely done. Had you forgotten it. Old seving tray. Very cool.

I knew it was around somwhere. It was a school project in the woodwork class and if i have it right it's rubberwood. Now that i think about it it was probably to help understand grain direction. Funny how things turn out here i am over 30 years later and now finaly i'm working with wood, have been on and off for a while now but its getting there a bit at last!
