    Default First Intarsia

    Here is a projet that has kept me away from penturning for a while. This has 139 pieces to it. Lots of sanding and shaping. It is made from Cedar, Blue Pine, Pine, Aspen and Walnut. This is my first intarsia project. It is 25 inches wide.
    Cheers
    Mike

    Mongrell;
    I used Aspen for the saels, and Masters Gel Stain Pickling White. I had planned on using Holly, but it is hard to find and goes for $42. PER BD. FT.
