With modern equipment and materials, it's easier than ever to use wood
veneers for decorative purposes! From tools and adhesives to knife and
fretsaw cutting techniques to laying up and finishing borders, all the
details of marquetry are here, accompanied by reams of fabulous photos
and exploded diagrams. Examine, in close-up, the characteristics and
cuts of various veneers. Bevel wood, and "nib" a window for an inset.
The many simple-to-follow designs include landscapes; flowers; and a
nuthatch on a branch.
