    I’ve been purchasing inlay banding for years to enhance the look of my woodworking projects and thought it’s probably time to start making my own. In this woodworking tutorial video we go over 7 different designs to get you started in making these inlay strips. Inlay banding will instantly make your boxes, table tops and picture frames pop with class and elegance. This is one of those projects that the more you do it the more creative you get with it.

    As a newbie into inlay projects this video inspires me with my own exotic visions of patterns so easy to construct. And with all the sources of scraps, cut offs, bits and pieces of exotic woods online it provides an unlimited number of experimental possibilities. Thanks for your expertise.

    I love this video! They all look great and don't look too difficult to make. So, I repair antique clocks, and some antique wooden clock cases have thin banding like these inlayed into the cases that follow the curve of the dial. They are much thiner that the banding in this video. I was wondering how you could go about making curved banding, say around a 4 inch circle. I can see you you would just clamp the banding around a curved piece of wood that was only made out of straight strips during glue-up, but what about the Chevron pattern?

  • @jamphotostudio
    @jamphotostudio Рік тому

    Thanks for the great video David! I'm looking to build snare drums (and yes I'm a drummer) LOL. How flexible are the banding strips once you trim them down, and is there a suggested thickness or should I sam "minimum" thickness to get them to bend around a drum shell?

  • @vickiefowler1429
    @vickiefowler1429 3 роки тому

    I know this was just for demonstration purposes.... but, do you ever make longer blocks of inlay pattern to get more strips? If so, is there a maximum length that’s more advisable to use? How thin can you cut them without risking them breaking as you cut?
