Post subject: | How To Make Inlay Banding & Bindings |
I'd like to try to make some simple inlay banding & bindings(rope or checkered pattern). I know there was a book written on it,but, it has been out of print for some time. Does anyone know of another book where I might find such info, something with diagrams? If you make your own bindings, after you resaw to the desired thickness, what's the best way to remove your bandsaw marks? I don't have a planer. I tried a block plane but the material is hard to hold as it's so thin. Dave |

If you make your own bindings, after you resaw to the desired thickness, what's the best way to remove your bandsaw marks? I don't have a planer. I tried a block plane but the material is hard to hold as it's so thin. Try gluing some 80 grit paper to both jaws of your vise. Then slowly puul the binding piece through the jaws. Go slow,do not squeeze the piece to hard. A scraper set upon a bench so that a piece of binding can be drawn under it also works. to do this clamp the scraper between to blocks of wood and clamp those blocks to the bench Mike |

I recall that Joshua French had a jig that holds a scraper, made from a plane blade, in the correct position to scrape bindings and purflings. It was adjustable for different thicknesses, and held the blade at just the correct angle. I found it, it is in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=10102&t=13586&p=190765&hilit=plane+blade#p190765 |

Just a thought, did you try searching the web for stuff on Marquetry? I see some of these things called marquetry purflings from time to time. Just wanted to throw that out there. |

Dave If you have a workbench you could use just enough double stick tape to hold your bindings to the bench surface and then a nice sanding block with several grits of paper to smooth out any marks. This is what I do when working with thin material. The key is that the double stick is pretty strong and don't use too much. |
