 For that reason, many marquetarians have switched to fret or scroll saw techniques.Other requirements are a pattern of some kind, some brown gummed tape (IE as the moistened glue dries it causes the tape to shrink and so the veneer pieces are pulled closer together), PVA glue and a base-board with balancing veneers on the alternate face to compensate stresses.Finishing the piece will require fine abrasive paper always backed by a sanding block.
