I have nearly completed the last of the inlays that need to be done.
This inlay was for the prototype spice cabinet. I built 7 spice cabinets
and this was the first to get started and the last to get the inlay
done. I used Honduran redheart, blood wood, some yellow stuff, maple for
the flowers. I wanted to have a red breast for the bird so I found some
dyed camel bone for the red and green. The wings are bubinga and black
palm. The body is maple. I still need to scrape the thing down to the
field and then I will use some poly that has UV inhibitor for the
surface. I do not care for poly, but it was the only thing that I could
find that would help keep the blood wood and redheart red. If UV
inhibitor is not used, then the flowers would turn to a yucky brown.
Hope that you enjoy.
