The Knock

[Dennis51]

Here is an Intarsia I just finished. “ The Knock “ pattern was by Bruce Worthington , 282 pieces, including  the the pieces I couldn’t use , I actually made about 380 pieces.

Wow @Dennis51, that is spectacular!  How long did it take you to do that?  What are the dimensions?  What woods did you use?  

I am trying to get started with intarsia, my first project is sitting in the shop at the rough sanded stage.  I have great thoughts about getting to the point where I can do something that advanced.

that is a fantastic job

[Scrappile]

Very well done and beautiful.  

[Mike Crosa]

Agree with everyone. What you have created is wonderful.  It packs a punch.  Are you keeping this for your self? Or was it a commision?

[flarud]

Wow!  Those bricks, the face, everything!  Great job.  I can't even spell Intarsha, let alone create it!  LoL 

I have done several Segmentation pieces, so I am working up to attempting intarsia.

Thanks for the compliment

Here is a pretty late reply.

It’s 27” x 20” and weighs 9 pounds

I used poplar, maranti, walnut, pine and cherry

i estimate it took me about two months
