Flexible Arm Rest Tray
Project by
Antonio Hernandez Menchaca
General Information
This tray was designed for arm rest use, but can really be used anywhere. The advantage of it is we can just lift it up and move anything we have on top without having to remove it.
Open in Easel®
Select material
You need to pick a piece of material which is bigger than 270 x 400 mm in order for the piece to be able to be cut from it. The piece I chose for this project was 1/2 inch thick.
Estimated time: 5 minutes
Carving
Set your piece up, open the easel file and let it carve.
Estimated time: 40 minutes
Sanding and Finish
Sand all the pieces and apply your finish of choice. In this case I went for some Danish Oil, for a beautiful and easy finish.
Estimated time: 5 minutes
Glue Bottom Support
Once the parts of the project are carved, grab a strip of any kind of fabric and glue it across the bottom side of all the pieces, making it the support that will hold the piece together.
Estimated time: 5 minutes
