    WOW !!!

    How did you do that? Is it a surface inlay or does it go all the way through.

    Nice wood, great platter, and I love the inlay. Definitely not just another platter.

    This begs the question of what "not just another platter" would look like...

    Gorgeous work!
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Deep thought for the day:

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.

    That's beautifully done. I really like the finish and color. The transition between the rim to the bottom is sharply done. Nice work.

    Beautiful work Willem! Exceptionally clean inlay and the natural contrast between woods used is striking! The only thing I would like to see changed is for you to upload the image to SMC so that it stays part of this thread. Anything happens to your Photobucket account (and it has happened to many), we lose the image and your thread is rendered useless. Please consider it.

    Many thanks for all the complements. Previous question, the inlay was done with double bevel marquetry, using a scroll saw. The inlay thickness is 3/32".

    Very very nice!
    It reminds me of a hard edge sumi-e painting.
