Wichman Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 I've started on my next project, hopefully I haven't bitten off more than I can chew This will end up being a fishing rod rack, but I want it fancy for my Son in law. I found the pattern for a round end table with a dragon motif, the legs are dragons, and the top has a lot of veining cuts of a fire breathing dragon. I also wanted it to spin on a lazy Susan bearing. I've got all the parts and pieces together to be able to begin the project. The base will be a 2 inch thick 12 inch diameter slab of Elm, then the lazy Susan, next a solid 1/2" Elm circle, next layer will be another 1/2" Elm disk with recesses cut for the butt of the fishing poles as well as recesses for the bottom of the dragon legs. The legs come next with a 3/4 square center support, topped the the 12" diameter top. The top will have slots for the top of the fishing poles to set in. My plan is to finish with "latches" for the top of the rod fashioned from extra tail sections.
