Veneering and Inlay is a totally set apart art to master and I always admired the ones that know how to do it.
This book is an excellent way to demystify it. I guess...
So I would like to win it.
need to learn about this.
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!
Have been veneering a bit lately and need to know more to get better in inlay.
Hope it comes my way.
I'm now working on a special gift, I've cut the Abalone to a tiny Butterfly to inlay on a Cross shaped from Mesquite. The book would sure be put to good use, & just in time.
Inlay is cool.
Looks like a dynamite book. I looked inside at Amazon. Lots of pics and how-to's.
I would love to have this book. The project I am working on now reuires some inlay and it will be my first time so this book would be great!
I'm quite interested in this book -- have done quite a bit of veneering, but want to expand my skills with some inlay work.
I would love it add it to my growing collection on veneering.
Please enter me in the giveaway. Thank you.
I would love to have this book.
This would be a great book in my library.

This book is on my wishlist
More and more of the work I have been doing as of late could be made better, not really better but just that added touch more with inlay. Where I live now it's hard to take the classes I would like to take, just due to the traveling. So a lot of my learning has become self taught through the great books available on this web site. Last week I was at a Barnes and Noble Bookstore in Cincinnati and ended up buying 5 more books on wood working, just because I knew it would be a while before the next chance would present itself.
A free book that I dont have would be great. Moneys tight with the way the economy is right now. So anyway to save money is very welcomed.
Hope to hear it is on it's way on June 8th!!

looks like a great book
I would like to "sign" my work with inlay. Give it that little extra dash.
I find that as my skill progress and as I am able to move on to more complex projects, I am really deficient in the art of inlay. I would really like to learn; this book would be a great help!
On my wish list too.
I was just about to order a book on inlay...but I think I'll hold off until this drawing is over :)
i would love this book cuz i think it will be an easyer step to going into maqitry sorry my spelling is not good but my woodworking is skillz are nice but theres always room for improvment thats why i want this book plus thats the only way i can learn for now besides the web and t.v.
Looks like a great book!
