Popular Post Wichman Posted July 21, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 Just finishing this one up. Pattern from an old magazine. 1/2 plywood plaque (9 layers), I cut two stacked, FD Polar #1, Ebony for the dark stripes, dark walnut for the body, natural for the face and background. I saved all the dropouts (taped them back in place while I cut the rest of the pattern) stained them separately and then glued them back in place, the dark stripes were glued just pround of the surface (toothpicks for spacers 5/64" ) Greatgrandpawrichard, MarieC, Phantom Scroller and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wichman Posted July 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 MarieC, I cut the whole thing from a single 1/2" thick plywood plaque. I stained the various pieces "ebony", "dark walnut" and "natural" using Minwax stains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
