"If you can use a band or scroll saw, you can create professional-looking, three-dimensional pictures in wood. Intarsia--the art of cutting out, then fitting together thin, differently colored and textured wooden pieces--is a craft of precision and artistry that can be enjoyed on many levels. By offering lessons in the use of power saws and other tools, safety tips, finishing techniques, and wood selection, this comprehensive guide adapts the ancient art of intarsia to today's woodworker. For three beginning pieces--a simple flower, a rose, and a happy face clown--explicit instructions, along with tips for avoiding or dealing with common pitfalls, start you on your way. Once you've honed your skills you can apply them--and your enhanced understanding of woods--to create one-of-a-kind artworks based on any of the other 17 projects. Discover the creative possibilities of intarsia ... and add a new dimension to your woodworking."--Publisher description.
