coullion Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) Well, here is my first attempt at Intarsia. I liked the one Clayton did and decided to give it a try. Woods used are: Aromatic Cedar (toothbrush handle) Bubinga (inside of mouth) Redwood (eye) Purpleheart (tongue) Maple (everything else) Made it for my dentist for a Christmas present. Pattern was found at Intarsiadesigns.com and was designed by Newton R. Ferguson. I think it came out pretty good (although I see the problems with it ) Let me know what you think! Thanks, Todd Edited December 22, 2013 by coullion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatie Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 I would not be giving that away for love nor money. I would be so proud of it I would give it pride of place at home and tell everyone that walked through the door "LOOK WHAT I MADE" Excellent work.

coullion Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks guys...I liked the outcome, but it IS a lot of work. I learned a lot about how to do things better next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multitom Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Excellent work! I agree with you, it is a lot of work but if you have the right sanders(Contouring) becomes easy. I have been trying to make a homemade soft sander for a long time to give this beautiful art form a try- thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
