rdatelle Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 (edited) Well I finally got up enough nerve to try to do an inlay. This is Steve Goods pattern. I used walnut and maple and birch. I set the saw at 3%. Started at 2 then two and a half and finally 3. Fit pretty good. Now I have to try something a little harder. Trying to figure out how to get different colors of wood in the pattern. Not sure if I have to stack all the different color wood together for each separate piece.
