    Default Lucida Stretcher Bond

    Wasn't quite happy with the proportions of the first 2 stretcher bond blanks.

    I have made some more with 6mm segments rather than 8mm segments. Still not quite happy with the proportions so I might make the next set at 4mm segments.

    The timber is Rock Maple and Walnut Veneer.

    The kit is a Lucida Pen Kit (Same size as the Elegant Beauty and Aero only it has a different centreband).

    As always, comments and suggestions appreciated.

    Regards

    Timberbits.
