Project Information
I had an old bath mat made out of teak that I stopped using 8 years ago but didn't have the heart to throw away (woodhoarder). I finally came up with the perfect project for the wood. Bonsai pot!
I broke down the bath mat, jointed, planed, and glued it up for more than enough material. It was my first time cutting angled dovetails, which was a little tricky at first but there is plenty of helpful info online. I also used the spokeshave to make the subtle curve in front.
Afterwards, I bought an African Boxwood plant from Home Depot and hacked away.
