Hello Annika, I am happy to provide an offer for your idea…would you happen to have measurements for the compartments of the tray?
Annika 03 May 2021 1:46 pm
(Automatic translation) 03 May 2021 1:46 pm: Annika
Hello Paul,
I'm sending you another drawing where I put the size of the compartments in centimeters. I hope that it is recognizable.
Since I don't know how many centimeters you need for the struts between the compartments, these are only approximate figures, which you are welcome to adjust. The main thing is to get the outside dimensions right. The interior layout is variable at about 0.5cm per compartment.
Thank you very much!
Paul Kiarie 03 May 2021 2:41 pm
Hello Annika, thank you for the sketch it has really helped. I would like to use cypress wood and glue to put it all together and finish with a coating of clear varnish, what do you think about that?
Annika 04 May 2021 9:18 pm
(Automatic translation) 04 May 2021 9:18 pm: Annika
Hi Paul,
would there be a possibility to get a darker wood, as our kitchen is in dark wood tones? Lacquer to finish is great.
Paul Kiarie 04 May 2021 9:44 pm
Hello Annika, we could use a stain to darken the cypress wood such as mahogany stain since the darker woods such as actual mahogany are expensive and hard to find. The mahogany stain would also act as the lacquer
Annika 06 May 2021 12:12 am
(Automatic translation) 06 May 2021 12:12 am: Annika
Hello Paul,
yes that is a great idea. I would then only maybe like to take a shade lighter than mahogany. Medium walnut for example. But if that's not possible, mahogany is fine too.
Thank you very much!
Paul Kiarie 06 May 2021 7:26 am
Hello Annika, would you like me to use Cypress wood and stain it a light mahogany so that it's not as dark as actual mahogany wood?
Annika 06 May 2021 11:51 am
(Automatic translation) 06 May 2021 11:51 am: Annika
Hello Paul, yes with pleasure. So then cypress wood with a mahogany stain that is not quite dark.
Paul Kiarie 06 May 2021 1:02 pm
Hello Annika, thank you…I will get started soon.

Hello Annika, here is the cypress wood i will be using to make the tray along with the glue. i had it sliced horizontally to get a thickness of 1cm for a nice sleek look.
Annika 13 May 2021 1:15 pm
(Automatic translation) 13 May 2021 1:15 pm: Annika
Yes super.
Paul Kiarie 15 May 2021 10:41 am
Hello Annika, this will be a nice big tray. My apologies for the late reply but we've had power outage which has slowed down the progress but I should be done soon when the power is restored .
Annika 15 May 2021 10:58 am
(Automatic translation) 15 May 2021 10:58 am: Annika
That's not a problem at all. Thank you very much for letting me know.
Kind regards Annika
Paul Kiarie 18 May 2021 5:35 pm
Hello Annika it seems I can't apologize enough but I'm still having problems with the power since it messed up the wiring in the house but I'm working with the power people to have the issue resolved and I'll have more photos of the completed tray latest tomorrow
Annika 18 May 2021 5:42 pm
(Automatic translation) 18 May 2021 5:42 pm: Annika
Dear Paul, for us there is no hurry at all. Please don't stress about it. And certainly not because of a power outage, that's no problem at all.
Kind regards
Paul Kiarie 19 May 2021 7:10 pm
Hello Annika, here's the tray fully assembled and the only thing that's left is sanding and painting and it should be done by tomorrow.
Annika 20 May 2021 12:25 am
(Automatic translation) 20 May 2021 12:25 am: Annika
This looks great!
Paul Kiarie 21 May 2021 4:08 pm
Hello Annika, here's the finished and stained tray…the mahogany brings out the different grain directions in the wood. What do you think?
Annika 21 May 2021 4:26 pm
(Automatic translation) 21 May 2021 4:26 pm: Annika
Yes this looks perfect!
Thank you so much!!! We are very very happy!
Paul Kiarie 21 May 2021 4:52 pm
Hello Annika, I could add more mahogany stain to blend the yellow parts to make them darker if you like
Annika 23 May 2021 9:55 pm
(Automatic translation) 23 May 2021 9:55 pm: Annika
Hi Paul, maybe this is good for the yellow spots. Otherwise the shade is so great.
Paul Kiarie 24 May 2021 3:23 pm
Hello Annika, I sprayed on some more mahogany stain to blend in the parts that hadn't really caught the colour and this is the finished product. I hope it's to your liking.
Annika 26 May 2021 3:59 pm
(Automatic translation) 26 May 2021 3:59 pm: Annika
Yes perfect, thank you very much. Then it is so ready.
