Outboard motor stand

Started off with some leftover plywood and mahogany. Clamped them down and inlaid them with strips of ash. First coat of varnish. Second coat. All fixed together. Last coat of varnish. A little bit of paint to make it look like the transom of the boat. Hey presto :)

Cheers, the mahogany was in 2" strips so I just glued them down with the ash in-between then sanded the ash down flush.
