This Intarsia project was pretty much done by the book by Kathy Wise (3rd photo). However, I made it about twice as big to fit the scale of our master bath where it will be hung. The stick is 4/4 Bolivian Rosewood (24" long to give a sense of scale). The rest is 6/4 Yellowheart, some of which...

This project took me some extra time to do. Bolivian Rosewood and Wenge with a bit of Cocobola on the bottom. Used about 15 coats of lacquer for a piano type finish. It takes alot to fill in the grain of that Wenge and took about a month to do the finish and get it all cured up. Making small...

Mantle clock made from Sapele, Bolivian Rosewood, and a little Curly Maple. Bought a clock kit from Woodcraft for the movement and clock face. Didn't follow any plans just used some pictures for ideas and sized to fit clock face. Finished with boiled linseeed oil, minwax polycrylic to seal...

This edge grain board with purpleheart, osage orange, maple and bolivian rosewood turned out alright. I need to work on better color patterns, still new to all this.

This box is made from Lacewood with the inlay of Bolivian Rosewood. While I was Sculpting this I carved through the rosewood. I started to scrap it, but decided I liked it. What do you all think? Scrap pile or keeper? Joey

I believe this is my best creation to date. I started off with a basic Bolivian Rosewood box and added maple miter keys. I did not have enough rosewood to make a top so I started looking around the shop. I came up with this piece of curly maple that was all most long enough. The problem was...

Hi all, after six months of being without my left arm, the surgery I had has me back to normal. I just got back in the shop and decided to make something simple to ease back into the woodworking. I made a breadboard for my sisters birthday this week. I took sunken cypress and put bolivian...
