Hi Fine folks!
I am a beginner woodworker that have mainly done small projects but I am looking to make my first bigger piece, a Couch Tray for my wife for when she eats on the couch.
My biggest question is will this structurally work?
Material - Feet, legs & support beams will be made with walnut, the surface will be made of Ambrosia Maple.
Joint - Dowel joints with glue (Mortise & Tenon joints are out of the question since the hammering of the chisel creates too much noise and I live in an apartment)
Dimensions - 20"w x 16"l x 26"h.
My apologies if anything is unclear, English is not my native language and I am trying to learn all the correct phrases.
Thank you for taking the time to read through!
Regards,
Gerrit.
