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.
