Bear Box Intarsia
« on: June 14, 2010, 04:45:13 pm »
Hi folks
Here are a couple of pics of the commissioned Bear Box Intarsia that I have been working on. I still have to install the hinges, do the linings and apply a couple more coats of satin poly but it's coming along nicely. It has 70 pieces from 10 different woods .
