Back on the Intarsia horse...

[linkshouse]

Here is my first intarsia project since injuring my finger.

Ha ha, I've just noticed the pun...

It isn't quite finished yet but it's been so long since I've done an intarsia I couldn't wait.

Thanks Brian.

I got the mahogany amongst a couple of pallets of scrap wood that I bought from a local builder a year or so back. It was nearly all Mahogany (probably Sapele actually), Oak and a bit of what I think is Meranti. I'm nearly through all the wide stuff now but the square sections knock down and then glue together quite well to make wider stock.

It's silly but I've been fine with "big" work but found working on the Scrollsaw and using the sander quite painful, I suppose it's because I'm is using my fingertips.

Exciting times indeed. You'll need to post photos if not here, then at least on your Flickr feed.

Very nicely done Phill.
Try not too push the finger too much, give it time to heal.
