INSTRUCTIONS

Copy the patterns and trim them so that they can be easily centered on the workpiece. Also cut where appropriate on a 45 degree angle across the registration marks. This will aide you when aligning the patterns on the work-piece (see Fig. 1).

The registration marks are guides to help you align all the plates in the pattern accurately. Remove the transfer paper and secure the remaining three sides of the pattern with masking tape.

Cut and assemble

Check the grain direction of the padauk inlay stock (panel No. 1) to be sure it matches up with the pattern, then attach it to the underside of the face piece with masking tape (see Fig. 3). Drill a blade entry hole, then make a bevel cut along the pattern lines. Note: for more
