How the Water Becomes Wood

The tray is a working chart first, cut to the water's true shoreline.

  1. ChartThe shape comes straight from a bathymetric chart of the water.
  2. CutThe shoreline is laser-cut from birch, exact to the map.
  3. EtchDepths, place names, and points of interest are burned in before the shoreline layer is set on top.
  4. SealA durable acrylic surface locks the map in, so the tray is made to be used, not just admired.

A Lake Erie serving tray: 12 by 20 inches of carved birch with the walleye capital etched end to end, sealed in acrylic for real use.

Erie feeds its people, most productive fishery of the five lakes, and the tray keeps the theme: perch baskets over the western basin, drinks anchored off the islands, Put-in-Bay roughly beneath the celery sticks. The acrylic surface shrugs off tartar sauce and lake-effect humidity alike.

Island hoppers, walleye captains, and Friday fish-fry hosts: properly served.

The lake's full depths hang as the Lake Erie 3D chart.
