The idea from Johannes from Zuerich:
The story of the Wooden drawer insert, external dimensions 91cm x 37cm:
Negotiation phase
Am happy to provide an offer for your idea, I have undestoond all the details of the cutlery box.
I would suggest the outside dimensions to be 1 cm and the rest to be 0.5cm.
Thank you.
Esther
I'd love to make an offer for your idea. I have understood your specifics but I'd like to recommend that the outside dimensions to be 1cm instead of 0.5cm. This is due to the estimated weight of roughly 4kg and the length which is long, I would advice to make it that way so that the entire tray is propotional and firm as the outside wall supports the rest of the tray.
For the bottom of the tray I'll use veneer wood as it's more firm than plywood which is light to support the length and weight of the tray.
What would be your prefered choice of material ? I've given an estimated quote for Mahogany. That can change depending on what you would prefer.
Pleqse advice further..
Thank you,
Esther.
Hello Esther
thank you. As long as the external dimensions are maintained, the thickness of the side and partition walls of 1cm is ok, we have uploaded the adapted sketch. Is this mahogany from sustainable use?
kind regards
Johannes Schlegel
Thank you very much for your reply.
The external dimension will maintained. Mahogany is good and sustainable for use.
Thank you.
Esther
Thank you very much for your reply.
The external dimension will maintained. In terms of sustainability, I'm not very certain but I buy from Pewaki Timber enterprises here in Kenya who mostly import their wood from Congo. Im sure with the imports they make, there has to be certification of some sort to make everything sustainable.
Thank you,
Esther
Production phase
Thank you for your reply.
I will start the tray immediately that's on 22-10-2019.
Thank you
Esther
all fine!
I have started the tray.
After dividing the down partition of 20.1 cm there's remaining of about 2cm.
The same applies to the above division of 7.5cm, there6also remaining of 1.7cm.
Kindly can I divide the partitioning equally as long as I maintain the outside dimensions 91cm X 37cmX 6cm,
Thank you
Esther

That looks pretty, thanks.

Hope you're well. I just received the tray. It's in perfect condition, I loved the quality very much but I only had one concern. The height of the tray is off by 3mm. It's 90.7 instead of the 91 you had asked for before. What do you think about this and how would you wish to proceed?

Sharon
