This tray frame is made from obeche, the sides are made from a conventional wide flat frame that has been mitred on its side, the back part is made from a fillet 9mm x 73mm (refs: Rose and Hollis A104 and F7 if anyone's taking notes). The fillet was underpinned first on the inside and then the outer frame was underpinned through the fillet to join them together nicely. The sides of frame were also drilled and cross pinned close to the top (the face) for extra strength. Here I am giving the frame a size coat with rabbit skin glue.
