TV Trays

[Bob Johnson2]

Has anyone ever made a set of TV trays, if that's the correct name? The only ones I can find to buy are too plain and very cheaply made. Looking for either a couple images or plans.
Thanks

If my memory serves me I believe Norm had built some on onw of his past shows. Check newyankee workshop and you should be abel to order the plans.

Just checked newyankee.com and the plans are item# 703

There are plans for a general purpose serving tray in a Taunton press book. I'm not at home so I can't check, but I'm almost positive that it is this one "In the 18th Century Style: Building Furniture Inspired by the Classical Tradition", ISBN: 1561583979.

I've seen a couple threads on this forum about breakfast trays intended for eating while in bed, perhaps you could adapt one of those.

I made two sets from WOOD magazine plans, which were in issue 122(March 2000).
I made them from red oak and walnut. I'm currently working on a set for my wife out of white oak and walnut. The walnut ply I got had VERY thin veneer, so I had to make my own walnut veneered panels for the tops.

Thanks all, I ordered the plans from Wood Mag.
