Productive Day in the Shop

[barb.j.enders]

I had a nice, puttering day in the shop today.  

Worked on the glue up of my first multi-wood intarsia piece. I have reduced the pattern for this.  Pattern designer is Janette Square.  Used Poplar, Rainbow Poplar, Sapelle, Maple for the plant.  Searched for wood to make a frame.  Have that cut and glued.  While all that was going on, did a fun little project.  Thank you Steve Good!  Frog is cut from Poplar and glued to a pine cookie left from a Christmas tree a number of years ago.  Still needs the finish.  Then I started another project.  The wood is Cherry.  Pattern by H Botas.  What you are seeing is the back of it.  Using #1 spiral blades.  Thought of you @FrankEV while I was cutting.  Turned the speed down on the saw and tried to keep a light touch.

Cute idea to use the pine cookie.

Bored is more like it.  With the extreme temperatures outside, it is something to do.

Here is the frog.  Two coats of shellac as the finish.  The succulent now is posted in Bragging Rights.
