Denny Knappen Posted July 11, 2017 Report Posted July 11, 2017 I finished this project this weekend. The pattern is by Sue Mey and found in CWWC August 2013. I wanted to make this project for some time, but didn't have the right wood. I used 1 1/4" Maple discarded by the local La-Z-Boy chair manufacturer. The trim is 1/8" Walnut and the backing is Red Oak plywood. I used FD Polar #9 blades and finished with spray Shellac. Ideal for displaying small items. Any ideas? Comments welcome.

wombatie Posted July 12, 2017 Report Posted July 12, 2017 How about you make some miniatures, they would look good on there. Maybe an air plant in a tiny pot. Oh boy could I fill it. Any way Denny It looks great and I love the wood that you chose. Marg Quote
spirithorse Posted July 12, 2017 Report Posted July 12, 2017 Perhaps miniature bird houses? Very nice shelf! God Bless! Spirithorse Quote
rdatelle Posted July 12, 2017 Report Posted July 12, 2017 That came out great Denny. You used a #9 blade on that to. I would of never thought of using a #9 on that. I guess I'll have to try some of mine on thicker wood. There's a lot of things you could put on there. Small sea shells, tiny miniature plants and little fairies they sell for fairly gardens. Quote
Denny Knappen Posted July 12, 2017 Author Report Posted July 12, 2017 Lots of good ideas. Thanks. Quote
