a Trial at Stringing

Post by nuhobby »

For recent "treating myself" days, I had got a Veritas string-inlay tool or two...

This was my first trial at doing such work. This is 0.032" thick stringing (dark kingwood) inlaid into light-colored hackberry.

Happy Woodworking,
Chris

Excellent inlay work. Beautiful wood and a mighty fine box.
