John, you met the challenge in a big way because it looks great. What method do you use to cut your marquetry?

Stupendous John! You possess remarkable marquetry skills.

John, incredible job! I have a ton of patience but I
don’t know if I have that much!!

-- Lauren, Massachusetts

Thanks all for your kind comments. It is amazing how you can cover up a lot of mistakes with photography.

Don; I use a double bevel method. I cut the marquetry on a shop built saw. I posted a blog video on the saw if you are interested.

Really a great piece. Reminded me of Jeremiah Johnson!

Dennis; Thanks for the comments. Coming from you is a great honor. You are correct about the face. I had a lot of problems in that area. It is still not to the level I would have liked.

Jim and Klaus; Your comments are greatly appreciated. I always admire your work so am humbled by your attention to my work. The unframed piece is 16X20.
