The way that this operates is that you sit on the seat while moving a very, very fine jeweler's saw blade back and forth through a packet of different veneers.
The way that this operates is that you sit on the seat while moving a very, very fine jeweler's saw blade back and forth through a packet of different veneers. The process of building up the packet, inserting greased paper, collecting and organizing the numerous tiny parts (there are usually 8-12 layers of different veneers in a packet; if there are 50 individual pieces in the image, you will have 400-600 pieces to keep track of...and don't cough or sneeze), piecing them together, gluing them down in reverse image, and so on is actually very complicated. It takes a lot of patience to do even a small image.
