    Default Woodworking (sort of?) ;)

    I made this on my scrollsaw. It is standing on a Figured Anigre end table that I made.

    I love the table but am curious about the timber.
    What is it like to work, finish etc.

    The scrollsawed naked chick is just a 1/2" Baltic Birch.

    The Anigre is all Veneer flitches (except the top, that has a paper backed veneer) that are glued using your typical run of the mill yellow glue to Cherry legs and aprons. It is similar to mahogany to work with, but maybe not as soft.

    It finishes BEAUTIFULLY! I love it with a nice clear coat of Tung Oil or lacquer. It should have a natural finish to bring out the figuring. The coolest thing about that table is, you will notice how the front and back pieces appear to be darker than the sides. If you rotate the table 90 degrees to you, the front and back still look dark and the sides lighter.
