This is such beautiful work, I love it!!

Post by: Caribbean Scroller on April 26, 2010, 09:04:22 pm: hi gary, they are 26" tops.with this technique you work with veneers, with these i use pine and andiroba. The circle is cut into quarters and stack together alternating the woods light ,dark all the way to the top . the 8 pieces are then cut all at once so then they fit into each other perfectly .note that the design is one long cut.so both top are made at the same time you just alternate the colours when laying it out for glueing
