Ok I got a nice piece of curly maple that will eventually be done in some copper wire inlay.

Cut it to shape

Sorry for the poor pictures I am having to use my phone

This one is looking PHENOMENAL!!! Definitely SUBSCRIBING!! Can you share some more on how you did the San Mai Billet?
Looks like it will be a Beast! And a A BEAUTIFUL BEAST, at that! Rex

Well I am at a halt. I heat treated the blade and it delaminated in on section about 1/2 in long. I am going to try and heat it again and see if it will weld back if not I am out of luck on this one and have to start over.
