    thanks Mike, yes this one did turn out nice, although if i was to do it again i would use more contrasting species of timber, when using the inlay method on the scroll saw theres a fine line between getting a good fit and getting it too tight that it splits you base layer, once you have the...

    You was lucky with that one, i do the same, i use a thin parting tool to do it most of the way through and then i finish it off with a hand saw, its definetly the most tense part of the whole project if i was to be honest with myself

    barley twist vase

    Hi glenn i dont think it has to be rustins plastic coating i think any laquer will work just the same , i have just ordered some art resin epoxy which i am going to try, ill post the results soon, thinks it just getting a nice thick layer that can be sanded flat that is the key to the process...

    barley twist vase

    on a side note i am going to try a epoxy finish next time that you put on once then leave to cure for a hard finish. It might turn out to be a disaster but it might not. If it works i will certainly be a lot less work. it might be a short follow along but if anyone interest in following let us...
