    Default First foray into complex V-carve inlay

    OK so I decided to use a Christmas gift as an excuse to try out a complex V-carved inlay. A jewelry chest for my wife.

    Holy #%%$#... this method works well. I was incredibly surprised how flawlessly this enabled me to use a design I would never have attempted using traditional methods. Needless to say I will be doing some more. Total props for the tutorial on vectric.

    Maple into Peruvian walnut for the doors. The male inlay was cut out of 5/4 and then resawn on the band saw (leaving me most of the block to do more) 18"H x 13"W x 8.5"D

    Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
