I started making the small wooden tiles years ago and then stopped. They sat in my shop since, in a box.  The reason was that I had changed my mind about how to use them and that I was not happy with the color layout. I got them out a while back, gave them a great deal of thought, added more Yellow Hart and Purple Hart in some of the areas and liked what I saw. Then I couldn't decide what kind of table it should set on. My daughter said it would make a beautiful wall hanger. I liked that idea because I can still make it into a table. I was going to apply the 2 part epoxy bar type finish. I decided against that becasuse I wasn't sure how the tile and backing would react to humidity and temperature changes. I applied a semi-gloss finish and it will be a wall hanger...for now.

 It is about 20" x20" and I have many types of exotic and domestic hardwoods in it. Most were scraps that I hated to part with and had to find some use for.

 

Ron that's absolutely amazing!!! That is artwork my friend, it would take it's place in any gallery, and fetch a nice price too I might add! Great work sir, absolutely amazing, the patience paid off!

That's really cool Ron. How did you put that together?

Wow That's super impressive ,fantastic work

Wow Ron, that is beautiful. Your daughter is correct, that makes a great wall hanging. I know it would be a great table top also, but this piece needs to be displayed.

 

Great job, the finish is very nice.

 

Lots of work in that and you did a supper job.
