First shots at Intarsia
« on: January 29, 2023, 08:12:52 PM »
Hello, forum newbie here. Have found this interesting lapidary forum and reading  for a couple days now. Since ive become interested in Intarsia work ive been trying to learn and apply some of the techniques. I thought i would post a pic at my first attempts. Its been a little difficult and challenging getting a 90 deg flat on smaller pieces using my Crystalite 6” flat lap though. I’ll keep reading, learning and attempting additional pieces. Im intrigued by all the different combinations of materials and color combinations that can be used. Anyway, hope you all like the attempts.

Welcome!

Glad you're finding info you like on here.

There's a real treasure trove at the archive link ( http://lapidaryforum.net/gemstone/ ) on the home page.

I don't do intarsia, so will leave the technical aspects of your issue to those who have experience.
