A friend was planning a trip to Germany and wanted to take a gift to her friends and asked if I could make a couple of these. |
The wood is Black Cherry from our wood lot, cut and air dried stored inside for about 4 years. |
The date on the photo is NOT CORRECT , I was just too lazy. The design and engraving was programmed using Vectric Aspire ver 11.5 and my CNC is the ShopBot Desk top 24 by 18 inches. |
This is the second tray, same size has but different text. |
The trays are 7.5 inches wide and 16 inches long. The pocketed area is .375 or 3/8' inch deep |
The back of the tray has the finger grooves pocketed out each end and there are two slots at the top also pocketed half inch deep by quarter inch wide used to hang the serving tray as a wall plaque if you like. |

I had this piece of Hemlock about 9 inches wide and 19 inches long. |
I very simply pocketed the inner area 3/8" deep and V carved the text. |
On the back I pocketed the finger area and a slot at the tot to be used to hang on the wall if you decide. |
This is just another view from an angle. |
This is a 3D carving I designed from a photo of a "T" shirt sent to me asking if a wall plaque could be carved. I had a J.M.SchneiderS Bamboo Carving Board given to me so I thought I would try. The board is 11" by 14". Bamboo is not the most friendly wood to work with, splinters very easly, toolpathing at 45 degrees works better. |
This is the underside of the cutting board / serving tray with a Google Map fishing layout of Gould Lake, so I copied and pasted in my Vectric Aspire software pocketing the lake at 0.100" deep and the county and lake roads carved 0.050" wide and 0.100" deep. |
This is not realy a serving tray but is ment to be used at your night stand or dresser to place your jewelery when you retire for the evening. |
This design is from Biki a design engineer from Vectric.com she used during one of her many YouTube videos. The darker wood is Black Cherry, clear varnish. the lighter is Canadian Maple clear finish.Thank you Biki. |
