STOCKHOLM DESIGN WEEK 2010

David — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 18:26:31 +0000

This year’s Stockholm Furniture Fair, Scandinavia’s biggest annual design event, reeled in the crowds, as always. The main fair halls may have been a little quieter than usual, but an array of exciting work on show in the Greenhouse, the fair’s well renowned student and newcomer section, kept the masses inspired and entertained.

The making of an inlay

David — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 04:21:33 +0000

Here are some pictures of the process of making the center inlay for the Tree Core Bed.

I used an elliptical jig for the router to create the recesses for the inlay

This is the fir beam used to get the veneers that are inlayed in the center of the bed

These are the fir veneers from the beam

Here the veneers are bookmatched and held together with tape

The end grain fir veneers are finished being shaped and are ready to inlay!

A hydraulic jack is used to clamp the veneers during the glue up.

The finished product!
