Marquetry with Charlie Brown

Charlie Brown demonstrates the basics of starting in Marquetry. Marquetry, thin sheets of wood, metal, or organic material, such as shell or mother-of-pearl, cut into intricate patterns according to a preconceived design and affixed to the flat surfaces of furniture.

Appreciate the time you spent explaining cutting sequence and where to start the blade. I have cut a few samples and in some cases got parts too small- cut the wrong direction. Thanks again

Excellent presentation. Much appreciated. I have taken other classes but only ones using an actual motorized scroll saw. I like your hand operated unit and plan to build one. I would like to see a short video of all your specialized hand tools and how you either fabricated them or where you purchased each one.

Please contact [e-mail] and we will get you in touch with Mr. Brown about the plans he used for this video

Thank you Charlie for putting this video together. Really good information. I had the great pleasure to meet and took a couple classes with John Eifler in Colorado in the early 2000s. I also built one of John’s saws and still use it today. I am very impressed with your saw. Great job and are you making any for sale? I wish you the best.. Bill

Thank you for watching Bill. Not sure if Charlie is selling them at this time.

A successful foot pedal can be made if pressed by the heel of the foot rather than the toe. This gives more control.

Excellent Information. Thanks for watching!

Good morning. How much the thickness of the material must be ? Thank you very much

[@KlingsporsWoodworkingShop]

As covered in the video that depends on what you can get. 1/32" to 3/128" is standard.

[@mikefondren2385]

I would very much like to obtain a saw like Mr. Brown is using in this video. How or where might I purchase one? Would it be possible to contact Mr. Brown to discuss the design of his saw and to ask questions about it's use?

[@KlingsporsWoodworkingShop]

John Eifler is the person to look up the plans from. Thanks for watching!

Contact the club he mentions early in the video. If you join the guild, cheap membership fee, they will sell you a kit or build one for you. That is how they fund raise.

At 11:27 you used the word "Immediately". I watched the whole video and loved it. I do however think that using the word "immediately" while referring to getting on with it within this video is a stretch.

[@KlingsporsWoodworkingShop]

Immediately in Marquetry equates to next. 😅
