Popular Post Old Joe Posted February 6, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 I have not been on here in a while, nor have I been very prolific in my shop. Feel like though I have a zillion patterns collected I have an equivalent of writer’s block as to what to do next. So I decided to make this Steve Good slat basket just to get something accomplished. I made the first one with BB top and bottom with Walnut slats. It came out okay, but it seemed to be lacking somehow. I decided to do a second one with some form of inlay out of Paduck. Of course I had to pick an inlay with about the smallest detail I could for the feet. It was challenging, but cutting the slats and notches was a pain, and getting them glued together was hard to do without breaking a slat. (Don’t ask how I know how hard it was to not break a slat while gluing). JimErn, Wilson142, frankorona and 10 others 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 Those are great looking bowls. I do not know how you do such intricate inlay. If you like another pattern of this type bowl there is a free downloadable one at finescrollsaw.com. http://www.finescrollsaw.com/order.htm It is at the top of this page...

Old Joe Posted February 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 Wow! That pattern looks like it would be rewarding to do. Thanks. BTW, the lizard inlay was challenging, especially with my old eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 A really nice addition of the inlaid lizard. It sure adds a lot to what would be a little plain by comparison Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
