Hi all. Firstly to the moderators, fantastic site! I am working offshore on nightshift with nothing to do. Discovered this a couple of nights back and have been busy trawling through posts ever since!
To my question. I am an amateur turner, and have progressed to the stage where I am happy with the bowls and hollow forms I can turn. I am wanting to start adding to the wood, with either solid inlay or paint. I have seen bowls where there are abstract lines or patterns that have been inlaid (with gold leaf, different woods etc), or some where there have been designs in paint. I am guessing the turners have used a dremel or some similar tool to remove the waste, and then "filled in the blank". I am hoping someone can point me to a site that shows this in more detail, or just offer advice.
Thanks in advance,
Sean
