Wood veneer replacing malleable metal
Posted: Fri Jul 11, 2008 11:33 am
Hi,
Lately I looked through a rusty tool-box inherited from my grandfather. There was a very old pocket-knife almost totally blackened with corrosion. I got it decently cleaned up and popped the metal sides off of it.
Taking a cue from the wood-turner magazines, I used some CA glue to bond, stabilize and finish wood veneer pieces onto the knife. It will be nice for a sentimental attachment.
