Someone needs to write a book on different inlay techniques and materials, with an emphasis on double bevel inlay.
Please tell me someone is working on this now.

Web sites can be inexpensive if you're willing and able to do the work yourself. But the real obstacle is in search engine optimization (SEO), which takes a lot of time, a lot of work and a lot of research.

Jim, I've successfully cut thin pieces of baked polymer clay on the scroll saw using a fine jeweler's blade. It cuts very nicely. The edges may still need to be sanded after cutting.Leave a comment:

I was able to pick up a used bar stool from a fraternal organization that was updating theirs. Bar stools are made to sit on for a long time, so this one has a padded back and seat as well as the foot ring lower down. $5.00.Leave a comment:

I've cut various woods, brass, copper, sterling silver, sticky note pads, and acrylic. I'm sure there are other things, but those are off of the top of my head. Each material has it's own technique, but these forums are a great help when you want to know how to cut something. The chances are that...Leave a comment:

I can vouch for the evils of Brazilian rosewood. Several years ago I naively turned a goblet out of this material without respiratory protection. It caused a nasty sinus infection, breathing problems, and the blisters on my hands that Rolf mentioned. I didn't see a Dr., but probably should have.Leave a comment:

I have done a few small pieces without a shrinkage problem. Apparently it's normal for polymer clay to shrink a bit, though, so it could be a problem on larger items where more clay is used. The clay can be baked more than once, so if shrinking is a problem you can just fill in the gaps with fresh...Leave a comment:

I tried turning deer antlers quite a few years ago. They need to be worked very slowly whether drilling, cutting or turning.
I didn't finish a project with the antler mostly due to the smell. I'd rather have a skunk die in my house. The stench is absolutely the worst thing imagina...Leave a comment:

Rippersmom, we must be neighbors. My wife and I are in Fort Mo.
Unfortunately we haven't found any really good venues in this area. Cornfest used to be pretty good, but this year it was almost non-existent. Harley Week is probably the best, but the costs for a booth in Laughlin are...Leave a comment:

On the pieces I've played with I've overfilled with the clay then leveled it off with a knife before baking. Shrinkage didn't seem to be a problem, even though some shrinking is apparently normal. There was enough shrinkage that the baked clay was loose in the cutout, though, so a little glue might...Leave a comment:

Received a response from Steve Good. He said that he had problems with oak because of the large pores. That shouldn't be a problem on tight-grained woods though.
I tried a little experiment this morning. The color on the wood came right off with a light rubbing and a bit of denatured...Leave a comment:

I'll try the mineral spirits (if I have any). I did try baking it then using a sealer on the surrounding wood, but the color still bled into the wood. It's possible that I need to use more than a single coat of sealer.Leave a comment:

Beautiful bowl, Don. Did you use a router for the groove for the inlay?
It seems like we need to coat the wood with almost anything that would prevent the color from getting into the grain. Would sanding sealer work?Leave a comment:
