Marquetry is the art of assembling thin pieces of wood together to form a decorative pattern or picture. Then that final piece can be applied on top of larger workpiece or inlayed into it. I've always wanted to try it and I'm really glad I pushed myself to make this project. I'm happy with how the pattern turned out. Hopefully you enjoy the video!

Love it! I picked up a bunch of small veneer pieces at a garage sale and haven’t known what to do with them. Thanks for the video. You’re a good teacher! Only thing that threw me off is you saying that you’re going to “cut this in half” when you are cutting them in two unequal pieces. I thought your box would be funny looking if the lid was the same depth as the bottom. Thank you again!

I have just finished a " marquetry " picture of an Italian lakeside scene . There was a gap of 52 years since I started it. As this video shows the making of a "pattern" in wood veneers, I believe the correct description should be "parquetry" as seen in parquet flooring.

Absolutely amazing! You have a seriously steady hand to cut those straight lines with a scroll saw. You also have a great eye for selecting the wood species that contrast yet compliment each other, great job!

Interesting to see that even hand-sawn stripes go glue back together - but I guess you'd have harder times when using wider stripe in between. That thin and bendable veneer paid off. But still - did you have to somehow corect the rhombus shapes before gluing them together? I can't believe they could have fit so well together when hand-sawn...
@NewtonMakes2 жыл бұрын
No, everything fit together without any issues.

Superb job, absolutely awesome. How many man-hours in total do you think you spent on it. I only ask because if you saw that box in a shop for sale you’d be shocked at it’s price. It’s only when you see how much effort it takes to make something as beautiful as that you realise the value (not price) of something hand made by a craftsman.
@NewtonMakes2 жыл бұрын
Probably three full days to make it. I film so it's difficult to come up with a more precise number.

@@NewtonMakes so if you worked on it six hours a day for three days, even at $15 per hour that’s $270 not including materials 😳. That’s my point.
