Choosing Your Materials

Step-by-step Tutorial

  • 19 
Cut the overlap at the corners. Don’t cut all the way to the wall. Leave a generous board thickness.
  • 20 
Bevel cut the cloth that mitres across the joint.
  • 21 
The resulting off-cut of cloth should look like two long rabbit’s ears connected at the bottom.
  • 22 
Glue up the cloth that will cover the interior and the tongue that covers the exposed top and bottom wall edges.
  • 23 
Turn in the board edge covering first and knick down the ‘knick’ of cloth that will cover the corner (much like the knick that covers a cloth case corner).
  • 24 
Work the interior cloth down with a chiselled Teflon folder but be careful that you work the cloth down with the tray resting on the bench, and that you don’t stretch the cloth and create a twist in your dried tray walls.
