Custom inlay


Jim Finn

Recommended Posts

Double Bevel inlay (or marquetry) is simply cutting the lettering, or the image, on two different colored woods that are stacked so you cut them both at the same time. Having the scroll saw table slightly tipped so one side is lower than the other cuts the wood on an angle so that one piece fits tightly to the cut out on the other.

     I find it quite easy to do.  This is the very first inlay I did. I sold it! 

One best be proficient in using a scroll saw first.
