Compass Rose Inlay

[Larry Rose]

Does anyone know where I can find a tutorial on laying out and inlaying a compass rose? I saw one somewhere on line not too long ago and now I can't find it. I would like to use it in my next project.

Go to SMC. Mike Henderson did a tutorial.

Larry,

A good book that covers the compass rose plus several other inlays that can be used in furniture is Marquetry Course by Jack Metcalfe and John Apps.

Be sure to post some pictures when you get it done.

Have a nice day.

Thanks Ed, thats the exact one I was looking for although I'm going to have to dumb it down a lot to match my skills.

Larry, let me know how it goes. This is something I really want to try myself when I have some time. Mike seems like a good guy, so you can probably post questions to him on the project.
