Title: The wine cork holder
Post by: boxmaker on March 02, 2012, 11:07:58 pm: Well, here it is. I learned some new techniques, Thank you Al (Intarsia92). I still haven't received my book yet, but I am anxious to start another one. I found a teddy bear online, but it looks pretty difficult. I hope there is an easier one in my new book.

What did you use for a finish? I like it!

Post by: boxmaker on March 03, 2012, 10:34:40 am: Thanks for all the comments. dgman, I cheated on the corks, I bought a box off Ebay. The finish is, three coats of wipe on poly, I read about some gel finish for Intarsia, but could not find it anywhere. This was my first project of Intarsia, and I really enjoy it. Thanks again for your comments.

Post by: troy_curtis on June 13, 2012, 08:04:00 pm: What a fantastic way to show off your cork collection. This piece is so wonderfully done you can look at it for a long time and just enjoy every moment of it. It is funny how my eyes started in the center with the picture and then the joy of finding the frame is made of actual corks from bottles. Then after looking at all the kind of corks you have I enjoyed looking at the fine detail of the picture all over again. Good work and a very nice project. I am sure many of your family and friends will love seeing that on your wall. Thanks for sharing.
