Bonjour ! For my daughter-in-law in Vancouver, who regularly sends us beautiful photos of the sunny daytime and evening skies with the bay in the background! And also in return for one of her gifts... From this drawing/photo, and after several tries ... I put her in the woman's place.... and put on her hat her first name ''Mel'' . Carved in intarsia/marquetry, I placed her in front of a window with this view of bright sunshine against a backdrop of Vancouver Bay. Woods used ebony ( hair, hat ) , padouk ( the sun ) , black walnut, and various inlays for the water , Mel's back, the hat. The back of the 10'' X 7'' frame is made of ½" MDF and cut slightly recessed (30°). Finished with Tried&True Danish oil, and Saman mahogany stain + Saman water-based varnish for the sides and back. Very happy with the result, thanks to M. Blodgett for the drawing. planeur

Bonsoir ! Do you use that kind of glue https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/supplies/adhesives/glue/20019-high-tack-fish-glue?item=56K6000&utm_source=free_google_shopping&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=shopping_feed&utm_campaign=CAN-EN|PLA|PMax|Tools|LowPriceTier&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAi6uvBhADEiwAWiyRdgtZAmjtrb0C9-sekA2hK-hC9Sp20QEFxTVrsv2U5dG39LwlGrR8DRoC-RUQAvD_BwE It is suppose to be good for marquetry. I have an old tube of the one show and did a test with marquetry on MDF , and even if my glue is quite old ( I would say almost 10 years ) the result was very good! This glue is quite liquid. Thanks and have a good night.... planeur

Bravo Barb très beau! Kind of piece I like, because I love a lot piano pieces.... Will remember it for a futur piece! "The music was antiqued by soaking in coffee and then dried in the oven " : first time I read that kind of work, and what kind of coffee do you use.... ? Do you play piano ? As I see the back paper is an Oscar Peterson piece, artist I liked a lot! Have a good day! planeur

Well .... after comparing the marquetry and the wood, I decided to cut the wood ! Had to cut two examples to have the good one! So here is the result, and on its final location....a hat! which is a part of my project... À suivre.... planeur

Bonjour As a gift for one of Nicole's aunts, who loves dragonflies, I made her one in cherry wood + 1/8" MDF base, based on a photo I found on the Web. The size is 9 " X 9" As you may know, and see... they are 34 holes on the main stem, 40 for the 2 upper wings, and 32 for the lower wings, faque ... a lot of patience as I often say, when cutting ! The model glue on my wood, with the holes for cutting... As you know It takes a lot of precision and care when cutting! Once the pattern partialy finish , and I varied the pattern a little as you can see once completed Then sanded the edges with great care and delicacy... Then the aunt's name is also cut out of cherry wood , "Gilberte" The dragonfly being rather fragile, I decided to put it on a frame, which will be in the shape of a flower. The flower made with russian cherry ( here it is call "merisier russe " )multi layer of plywood, and I made it with not to much flower details because I want to leave the attention to the dragonflies. Finished with mahogany wax as the dragonflies will be. After thinking of putting some colors at the back I decided to put only few one! So here is the take-off of my projet with the flower ( 12" in dia ) and her aunt , before I put some few colors Hope she like it as me, and especially see it completly , because she have a vision problem! Thanks as usual for your support , as technique, advises and shoowing your projets ! À suivre for the finish..... planeur
