The idea from Petra from Herrischried:
Please make 3 divisions for knife, fork and spoon with at least 28cm, and again a 3 times division of the rest
The story of the cutlery tray with the outer dimensions…31x48cm, height 5 c:
Negotiation phase
I'd love to make an offer for your request
I have understood your measurements and made a quick sketch of the tray detailing the measurements. Please find attached a drawing of the same
The wall thickness dimension for the tray I'd suggest we use 10mm/1 cm size of wood.
Also what is your preferred choice of material in terms of timber and finishing eg varnish or wax?
Would you like any adjustments, additions or any other particular issue that is left out addressed?
Please advice

Martin.

Hello, Martin,
We agree with your sketch and with a wall thickness of 10 mm. But we would like to have a cutlery tray with a bottom. Did you include a floor?
Preferred wood species: Pine.
Finishing: Wax.
Can you make us an offer?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Petra
Sorry it took a while to get back to you.
I'll consider the 1o mm thickness, choice of wood and a wax finish. The tray will have a floor of wood of the same thickness of 10mm.
Thank you,
Musyoka.
Dear Musyoka
We would like to order 2 copies.
Dimensions as shown in the sketch 48cmx31cmx5cm; Wood type: Pine waxed for a total price of 95€
Many thanks and best regards
Petra Eckert
I'll make two copies as requested.
Thanks
Musyoka
Hello, Musyoka,
in the mail of 11. January I ordered 2 copies for a total price of 95€ for 2 cutlery boxes. Because that's how it was stated in your offer of January 9th. Now one copy already costs 133.28€. I don't get it?
Kind regards
Petra
The cost for the two boxes is still 95€. The extra costs are all urban change lab costs which include 19% German taxation, urban change lab handling fee, customer acquisition costs and shipping to your address.
Regards
Musyoka
Production phase
I'll keep you posted on each development of the tray making process.

One tray is 2mm (31,2 cm) wider and the other one is 4mm (31,4cm) wider than requested and that therefore the trays don't fit and need to be redone.
My name is Noel, local operations manager, Kenya. I current have the trays for quality check. One of the trays is 30.5 cm instead of 31cm. Does that make a big difference? Kindly let me know.

My name is Noel, local operations manager, Kenya. I currently have the trays for quality check. I have attached some photos. Here are the dimensions:
Tray 1- 31cmx48cm, height 5.5 cm
Tray 2- 30.5cm x48cm, height 5.5 cm
Tray 2 is 30.5cm instead of 31cm.
Is this okay or should I ask the carpenter to adjust? Kindly let me know.
Kind regards,
