Making intarsia is always a challenge.

Intarsia (nicht zu verwechseln mit der deutschen Bezeichnung für Intarsien) sind eine echte Herausforderung.

I have not been able to do much in the shop due to health problems. I found a project that I had started back in June of 2015. This it what was done when I found it a few weeks ago.

Nistkasten für Brautenten

Wegen gesundheitlicher Probleme konnte ich in letzter Zeit nicht viel in der Werkstatt machen. Ich habe ein Projekt gefunden, das ich im Juni 2015 begonnen hatte. Als ich es gefunden habe, sah es so aus:



I cut the rest of the pieces and checked the fit.

Ich habe den Rest der Teile gesägt und die Passform überprüft.




After gluing the birds together and shaping them as a unit we made elevation changes and finished it.

Nachdem die Vögel zusammengeleimt und sie in einem Stück geschliffen worden waren haben wir die Höhen angepasst und sie fertig gestellt







God Bless

Homer and Carol, this is so beautiful! I envy you of (for?) the wonderful blue pine - you cannot get it here in Germany.

Homer und Carol, das ist wunderschön! Ich beneide Euch um dieses wundervolle blaue Kiefernholz - das kann man hier in Deutschland nicht bekommen.

You should see what I saw!

Thanks everyone.
I'm sorry you can not get Blue Pine in Germany. The richness of grain and color make it ideal for intarsia. Here its found mixed in with regular pine boards and is often treated as inferior by the new intarsia person. I wish I could send you a truck load.

Danke an alle.
Es tut mir leid, dass Ihr Blue Pine in Deutschland nicht bekommt. Wegen seiner Maserung und der Farben ist es ideal für Intarsia. Hier findet man es bei den normalen Kieferbrettern und von den Intarsia-Anfängern wird es oft als minderwertig betrachtet. Ich wünschte, ich könnte Euch eine Wagenladung voll schicken.

God Bless

Thanks.
The pattern is of our own making. The project is 15" X 20" and requires 59 pieces to make.

God Bless
