Cocobolo, Ebony, and Ivory Squares
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: John Fischer
These squares (5 in. and 6 in.) are made of cocobolo, ebony, ivory from old piano keys, brass, and steel. To ensure 90°, Fischer squeezed the blade and body in a machinist’s vise, then drilled two holes through both and pressed two hardened tool pins into the holes before releasing the vise. The squares are finished with wax.
