Intarsia Cockatoo

My cousin asked me to make a colorful parrot! He chose this cockatoo pattern by Kathy Wise. In this video I make this bird. I used Osage orange, yellow heart, aspen, ebony, holly, aromatic cedar, monkey pod, pine (stained blue), and walnut. I really enjoyed making this cockatoo with all different colors. Thanks for hanging out with me while I worked in the shop!
Psalm 91:4 (ncv) He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you can hide. His truth will be your shield and protection.

You did a really nice job on that challenging bird. Way to go. I envy you that cool respirator shield you got. It's way too pricey for me but a gal can dream. :) Here's a tip: Wipe a light coat of Armor All upholstery cleaner on the lens of your shield to keep sawdust from sticking to it.

[@CysCorner]

Thank you :) It is a bit pricey but hopefully it is worth it! It is so far and the company support is great! Thanks for the tip!

[@nhschreiner]

Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship. If you need deep penetrating stain try TransTint dye stains. They can be mixed with water or alcohol ( I use 90% rubbing alcohol) or 50/50 H2O and alcohol. Again stunning project, loved the video.

Very Nice, Love watching you create stuff. I am working on something special but not sure when I will get it done, as my wife of 49yrs has to go into the hospital for a major operation. Oh on your ear protection, I would suggest you flip it around from the back, so the extra is not hanging down in the front, as it might get caught in something. Probably nothing would happen but never can tell. God Bless.

[@CysCorner]

Prayers for your wife, and good idea with the ear wire. Glad you're making things!!!

[@Kkuts37]

WOWOW! Cy, this is gorgeous! I don't know if you have tried this, but I have seen in woodworking videos, where you can put small amount of course salt in between glued pieces preventing them from shifting. I have nor tried this, but thought I would throw it our there!!

[@Intarsia82]

This works well. Use the salt sparingly as only a few crystals are necessary to provide the gritty grip. Small amounts of salt will not affect glue adhesion. The glue is water-based and the salt will eventuslly dissolve.

[@CysCorner]

I have heard about salt helping with that, I even have a small salt shaker in the shop but never thought of trying it with intarsia pieces. I always think of when you clamp something together and it shifts and how the salt helps that. But it probably would help an intarsia piece from shifting! Thanks!

I love the piece but then i have a love of the birds too.... way to many here but love them all.... but if i may say something not to be critical but just a tidbit of knowledge if i may... cockatoos are all white except the black cockatoos which are black...And the Galah or ROsy Breasted cockatoo..... the Sulphur is which with exception of his crest which is a Sulphur yellow is all white... Also they are from Australia too.... your combining a McCaw colors which are vivid and stunning in life... but they are from central and South America to a bird in nature is white... try maybe using different woods that are different shades of white... I absolutely love the detail you are doing... it makes him just pop.... i hope she loved the piece as much as we did... sorry i was a party p%^per... i just figure you didnt know.... McCaws are a great deal bigger...more than double the Cockatoo
