This is a picture of the techniques which will be covered at Sunday's 10:00 presentation in High Point. The discussion will include mosaic pin inlays, block inlays (including abalone), brick patterns, scroll patterns, and wood burning fish scales.

Joe, These are very interesting. I can see how you made most of the turnings but how do you make the bricks. Is it a resin or do you lay them out around a base. I'll be down on Sunday and hope to make your presentation. Mark B

Mark, The brick patterns are done with wood and vulcanized fiber sheets. It's hard to explain quickly in writing. I'll show you a few diagrams at the show, and that will make it easy to understand.

Awesome stuff Joe. Not much more I can say other than you know much more about geometry than I ever retained.
