 My First Inlay - With Tom's Jig Holder...
Well I found some time today to mess with Tom's jig holder and used it to inlay a maple diamond shape into a walnut piece of stock. The photos pretty much tell the storage. They are numbered and contain the text. Overall it was a success.
I must say though on the cutting of the actual inlay. I decided to rout the inlay outside of the jig holder using double sided tape on the inlay and the workpiece. This did not work and evidently it allowed the template to move a bit as the piece just was not the proper shape. So I went back and fixed it up in the jig holder with packing etc. like I should have and it worked just fine as shown in the photos. Anyway... this one I am happy with... it was fun!
