Great stuff, all of them.

Bigger pics would have been nice, although new specs are in the pipeline and might help.

I use a Hegner multicut 2 Variable speed, The pig is made from pine.I use cellulose spray lacquer for the finish.
I tried to post pictures in a bigger size but the forum wouldn't accept them told me the files were to big.

Incidently can anyone tell me how to fix the tension on this saw. I keep loosing tension when using under load, I was wondering if it could be the spring or some other part of the tensioning mechanism that is worn.

Great Work, =D> =D> .

Re blade tension.

Check that there is no lubrication/oil etc, on the blade screw tensioning rod at the rear of the arms.
If there is, remove the rod and completely clean, with a degreaser.
Never be tempted to oil this screw rod.

Take care.

Thanks Chris for that. I never go any where near the tensioning rod with oil, but I will check to see if any oil has strayed into that area when lubricating the arms. If oil is not the problem I guess there must be wear somewhere where though I don't know. Suppose it will be a process elimination.
Thank You

Harry.

I don't make the patterns Jim, there are various books on the market on intarsia work one in particular is Cathy wise's book on intarsia for the begginer also there are several sites where you can purchase patterns.
