This inlay is about 1/20th of an inch thick and comes paper-faced to hold pieces together until glued in place.
Applying inlays is really quite simple. The most popular way is to rout out a panel the exact size and shape, just a shade shallower than the inlay. Glue down with the clean of face side down.

Applying inlay bandings is a very simple operation. Using a router with a straight cutter bit and guide, rout out a groove the desired width and just a shade shallower than the banding.
Glue the banding into the groove. When the inlay is set, simply sand lightly until it is level with the face of the project.
If stains or fillers are to be used in finishing the project, it is necessary to protect the inlay from absorbing the color of the stain or filler by first sealing it. |

This book is less an encyclopedia of wood species, and more a practical guide to working with the intrinsic variation and "knottiness" of the woodworker's chosen medium. It's chock-full of sensible advice on milling, grading and selecting wood, "reading the grain", working with defects, drying and storing wood, and even extensive techniques for working with veneers and green wood. And of course, it wouldn't be complete without a full-color photographic wood directory. 160 pages. Paperback - Oct 1, 2010 |
