Support Plates
These are a couple support plates I made for 9" paper plates. They come in handy when eating watermelon so the juice does not run off when the plate bends. They are made from female box elder and finished with satin lacquer.
I had some made from eucalyptus , but my grand daughter put one in the dishwasher and it came out all warped and cracked. I put a warning on these !!!

I'll bet your grand daughter doesn't make that mistake again. Do not put grandpa's wood projects in the dishwasher! Nice work. The support plates look good. Hope they stay that way!!!
Nicely done!

But the washer must have smelt good... Must have gotten dirty,
when it fell off.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
