Intarsia in Italian is the Italian name for marquetry. Its meaning has been expanded at this site to include the technique of starting from a thick base wood and sculpting individual pieces to create a three-dimensional effect. Intarsia is not like other marquetry methods. They do not have a background layer of wood around them. The project is surrounded instead by a piece or base wood that acts as a backdrop for each individual piece.

How To
How can you accurately measure wood?
We use many methods to measure wood. We use a variety of methods to measure wood.
A digital caliper has two jaws that open and close. One jaw holds the measured object while the other measures the distance between the two points. Digital calipers are great for measuring small distances, such as thicknesses of wood.
Laser levels have an infrared light beam that projects a line across the floor. The laser emits a red dot along the line. The line can be viewed down to determine if the surface has an even surface. Laser levels are best for checking the accuracy of large surfaces.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. There is a bubble in the center of the device. The device will inform you if the surface is level if the bubble is in the center. Bubble levels are great for checking the accuracy and precision of smaller areas.
