One of the things that sucks about getting old is you start to loose your strength. In the kitchen, trying to hold a full pot of hot food and pour it into a bowl or bowls can be a challenge. So I created this stand to rest a hot, heavy pan on while scooping and scraping it out. Works great. Has two orientations - low or high depending on what you are filling. This is basically the prototype but it works so well, it might be the final one.
Cut it on my AL extrusion CNC machine from a 6" x 10.5" scrap piece of plywood with a 1/8" downcut spiral bit. Sized the mortises to the actual width of the wood +.2mm (10 mils or so) for a reasonably tight fit and hand trimmed the corners with a chisel. I didn't put a finish on it but probably will if I don't make a second one.
