I had to find a top for this galvanized tray thing for steam washing and found old treated fence wood piled up outside in the mud, so cleaned and planed a few of the pieces down and ran them through a joiner so they'd glue up and installed joint wedges to ensure a stronger bond and a waterproof glue. After glue up I sanded the top down smooth and because I thought it might warp, I cut the edges to make a tendon and mortised in a breadboard edging. Went ahead and put in backer plates from some 2X treated wood I had, then mortised in some some old door hinges that I painted black and it looked beautiful and new, and yesterday we were using it and it didn't warp at all and steam escaped through a couple of holes I had drilled.
"well that's a mighty fine door you made but frankly, I didn't mean for you to spend any time on this. I just wanted some kind of heavy top to keep the heat from escaping" "Why'd you go to this kind of trouble?" asked my boss and before I even knew what I said it came out that I was "just doing all things for the glory of God" and thought of this song and how even the ugly and the small require the finest of material and the most expert of care, so that this top would last longer than the tray, or that a kind act would last longer than hateful treatment or that a new purpose outlives a purpose that has given up.
