From Matcha:

How the heck do I get started with marquetry?

From Jason:

I have a handle on the basics of double-bevel marquetry and I’m having a hard time finding resources for more advanced information. Even most classes that I’d travel for are titled “Introduction to DB marquetry” or similar. Most books on marquetry seem to have DB as an afterthought or not even mentioned. Maybe I’m just bad at looking, but I’d love the thoughts of folks who know more than me.

From Bevelup:

How did they learn about the variety and color of woods available to use? Are there any references they’d recommend?

Adding to that, How do you design around woods that lose color over time, get darker or lighter?

For Chelsea:

What percentage of your marquetry is done with a laser these days… what percent do you think that will be in 5 years?

What do you miss about your hand-cut method when you use a laser?

She works with Dykes with Drills which have several chapters in the US.

 For Albert:

How do you decide what elements to focus on when making a portrait? As someone who has only done two-tone line art type of stuff, that seems like it would be the hardest part of any “realistic” marquetry project.

Albert’s writing and work can be found on albertakleine.substack.com and @albert.a.kleine.
