Cutting a plate for disc sander on the table saw. It is 12″ diameter, 2″ thick.

Put a few it a few coats of polyurethane on the tray. It is showing some scratches on the surface. It looks like more sanding is needed.

I plan to use this spalted maple to make a lid for a small box. Here I am trying to stabilize the surface with instant adhesive.we’ll see if that works at all.

I am having some trouble balancing the plate for disc sander. Originally I planned to use the plate intended to be used as a disc sander plate on a table saw with 5/8 arbor. Pump motor has a 3/8 shaft so I tried different ways to make this transition. Plate is wobbly in every possible way. I’ll try couple of different ways to fix this. Here are some pictures:

Serving tray surprise is almost completed. I am working on final sanding following with a few coats af polyurethane.
