I am finishing up a little box to practice my veneering skills for when I make my workbench next week. I must say that veneering is very enjoyable to me and I can see myself really getting into it. In my video turorial search, I came across a lot of marquetry videos and it is definitely something I want to do.

In the little box I made I even experimented with a double bevel joint to bookmatch the top. It came out surprisingly well (on my 5th or 6th attempt). I definitely see a chevalet build in my future.

I’ll be honest, I have ZERO artistic ability when it comes to drawing. I am good at following patterns though, and there are plenty out there.
