I'm making a intarsia segmentation piece and got it cut out this morning.   I came in for lunch and decided to snap a picture so we can play a game.  Its called What is it?

 

Its a Christmas Theme.

 

I will post a final picture when I get it done in a couple days.  Until then let your imagination run wild.  :)

Edit Note:  I was informed that what I am making is not Intarsia, but called Segmentation.   Thanks dgman for clearing that up for me. :)

Do you know what I hate the most in woodworking?   Sanding.    It is the least fun thing to do in my opinion.

 

Anyway,  here is another clue.  I am working on sanding all the parts, with the sharp edges rounded over it really gives a little definition to the piece.

 

Back to sanding.  :(

Hey Chris, I don't know what you are cutting, but technically it is not Intarsia. Intarsia employs different colors or shades of woods and shaping of the wood pieces to create color and texture.

What you are cutting is a segmentation piece. Cutting shapes from a single board or same type of wood.

This by no means is a criticism, your project is coming along very nicely!

Hmm,

 

Very good, your on the right track.

 

Fat Albert!

 

Haha,  nice guess but no.  

 

 

I have my first coat of paint on the parts, in the morning I will put another coat on them.  Then time to glue them up.   Keep the guesses coming, your getting closer.  :)
