Thank You for the responses. I cut the pieces out today, 30 little pieces. I numbered each piece, on a copy of the pattern and on the back of each piece. I used one solid board (Cherry). I sanded the board before I cut them, 220 grit. I didn't sand the little pieces after, They were so tiny, I could barely keep a hold of them. I glued them all back together, now I have one whole bunch of grapes. Thanks again for the help. I ordered a book today, called Intarsia woodworking for beginners, by Kathy Wise. If you have any other tips I could use the help. Intarsia92 your work is amazing. I may be in over my head, but so far it is a lot of fun.
