Well finished another Christmas present for daughter who is a teacher and wanted one of these to stand in front of her class while reading to them.
I made a smaller section of the stand to the main part can be pulled out and inserted into the smaller base in case a student is going to read she may not use that part but I figured it added a little something being part of a set.
Oak edging, walnut I believe plywood for the rest as I was worried about movement seeing how it is almost an air tight fit for the top section it could not handle even the slightest of movement, I finished with a wiping poly satin and clear gloss for the top as it would get the most abuse.
The edge on the top is American black walnut a piece of scrap I had left over I believe that is what the wood is also the scroll saw things on the front I am honestly not sure what kind of wood it is just more scraps I had laying around.
