Topic: Inlay


  
  Inlay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inlays were common on high class furniture from the late 16th century and up to the art deco style of the 1920s.
The most famous example of inlay in Europe may be the late 15th century Studiolo [1] made for Federico da Montefeltro in his Ducal Palace at Urbino, in which trompe-l'oeil shelving seems to carry books, papers, curios and mathematical instruments, in eye-deceiving perspective.
In dentistry, an inlay is a filling consisting of a solid substance (as gold or porcelain) fitted to a cavity in a tooth and cemented into place.

 Inlay (guitar) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Typically, inlays are located on the fretboard, headstock, around the soundhole and on the pickguard.
Inlays range from simple plastic dots on the fretboard to fantastic works of art covering the entire exterior surface of a guitar (front and back).
The simpler inlays are often done in plastic on guitars of recent vintage, but many older, and newer, high-end instruments have inlays made of mother of pearl, abalone, ivory, colored wood or any number of exotic materials.

 Guitar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The simpler inlays are often done in plastic on guitars of recent vintage, but many older, and newer, high-end instruments have inlays made of mother of pearl, abalone, ivory, coloured wood or any number of exotic materials.
Most high-end classical guitars have no inlays at all since a well trained player is expected to know his or her way around the instrument, however players will sometimes make indicators with a marker pen, correction fluid, or a small piece of tape.
Most acoustic guitars have an inlay that borders the sides of the fretboard, and some electrics (namely Fender Stratocasters) have what looks like a wood inlay running on the back of the neck, from about the body to the middle of the neck, commonly referred to as a skunk stripe.

Inlay patterns, layout, and pearl cutting When last we met we spoke of tools and materials, and I left you staring at an array of scribes, jeweler's saws, thin blades, and noisy high speed drills.
Double-check that all inlays are properly positioned (remember: guitars are inlaid on the 9th fret, banjos and mandolins on the 10th), and set the object aside for at least 24 hours.
After each inlay is dislodged, take a moment to clean the residual glue from the inlay bottom and crevices, and renew the label and arrow (the acetone may tend to disperse the pencil marks, and it will dissolve away virtually any ink).

Inlay grafting is one of the best and most popular systems of propagating pecans in Texas.
The inlay occurs when tow parallel cuts are made through the stock bark forming a scion inlay pattern on the stock.

 Banjo inlay and custom pearl inlay technique
These spaces have been painted white and alignment has been made with a straight line and a pencil to ensure symmetry, and the inlay is glued onto the dry water based finger-paint, and not the rosewood itself.
The paint also serves another important purpose as It will allow you to gently pry the inlay off the fingerboard without as much risk of damage to the pieces of pearl because it's the paint it's glued to, not the wood.
And the photograph to the right is a section of the fingerboard that has been scribed and the pearl gently removed by getting up under the pearl with an Exact-o knife and slowly working it loose.

 Cole Sonafrank's Artwork: The Cold-Inlay Process Using Metal Powder in Urethane Resin
So was inlaying glass letters, but it left the problem of islands within letters like "o".
The basic inlay process that I used is this.
The reason for so much overfilling is that the metal powder settles, leaving the top of the hardened resin without enough left in it for a good, or even, metallic finish.

 What is Inlay??
Inlay is a method of decorating objects that dates back thousands of years.
Some people tend to confuse inlay with marquetry, which is a similar decorative technique that normally employs wood veneers, and is glued over the surface of the host object.
The inlay artist must start with a clear design, all perimeter lines drawn in as thin as possible (For more detailed information on this section, see The Art Of Inlay).

 Kevin Gallagher's Inlay Sequence
I then drop the inlay into place and allow a small drop of thin Cyanoacrylate glue to ooze under at an edge to hold it in place while I fill being careful to not use too much so that it actually fills to the surface of the fingerboard.
After everything is complately dry, I level the glue/dust and inlay all at the same time and restore the radius to the fingerboard surface.
Finally, I chamfer the edges of each slot that passes through the inlay with a Carbide pointed bit to allow the frets to be pressed in without chipping or lifting the inlay pieces.

 The Art of Inlay
Inlay in America today often adorns guitars, banjos, mandolins and other musical instruments, as well as furniture, fine woodwork, jewelry, wall hangings, and various objects d'art.
Traditional musical instrument inlays are general limited to just a few media-mother-of-pear1 in its various guises, silver, ivory, and wood--and the media are very seldom combined and used together.
Inlay has traditionally been a composition of shell, metal, stone, and tusk (with wood to a lesser degree) that is glued into a cavity that has been hollowed out of the surface.

The inlay results in various woods (ranging from soft spalted alder to hard maple) are always great as long as the wood is relatively dry (about 12% moisture content or less).
When turning or carving a notch for an inlay, the notch must be very well defined because the inlay sides will look sloppy if the notch has tearout along its sides.
The stone inlay may be a little tougher to sand when it’s coarse, but when the inlay is essentially completed, go to 180, 220, 320, and 400 grits for the final sanding.

Making inlays is a specialty in woodworking, with skilled craftsmen often arranging inlay designs that cabinetmakers set into their pieces.
In addition to the marquetry specialty, there is "string" inlay, which is made up of strips of inlay; and parquetry, which consists of geometric patterns (such as in parquet floors).

A piece of leather, of the same thickness as the leather covering of a book, but usually of a contrasting color, grain, or both, cut to a desired shape for placing into the leather covering, from which a piece of the exact same size and shape has been removed.
If the scheme of decoration calls for tooling over the area of the inlay, the leather for the inlay is cut on a bevel so that the grain surface is slightly larger than the flesh side, while the leather covering is cut in the opposite manner.
If, however, the area of the inlay is not to be tooled, the inlay and leather covering are cut vertically.
