I didn't love this and slap a 5 star rating down only because it seems to have a finish line instead of any further guidance to increase skills or advance if you have marquetry experience and want to learn more. I would have also enjoyed the gallery at the end of the book if it was strictly marquetry projects (with detail photos of the author's work). Although I will say that it was neat to see one of the projects outlines in the book in a larger setting of fine furniture.
It covers:
Species selection with some sample photos of species used in the projects covered within the book
Scroll saw setup and usage
Fret saw table and usage
Detailed bandsaw setup for resawing
Resawing cutting procedures
Tools, Materials, and Supplies
Good coverage of double-bevel cutting "how-to" with the scroll and fret saw
Hot sand shading
Sample projects with detailed step-by-step procedures start to finish.
Again, if you're already experienced in this craft, this book might not be of much value you.
