For our November meeting one of our lady turners demoed an ornament she turns. It's a basic globe ornament but she does an applique of contrasting wood on four sides of the globe. She uses a scroll saw to do a cutout on the added piece. She had some with Christmas trees and some with crosses. I do not own a scroll saw, by choice, in fact, I have un-owned one three times now. Scrolling is just not for me. I do however, have a router and guide bushings. I also happen to have a 3D printer. So, I printed a template for a cross and routed that into 4 pieces of wood for an ornament. The main body is walnut and the appliques are spalted maple, I think. Still have some kinks to work out but I'm overall happy with the look of it. I think it works this way but if a little more is turned away the pattern pieces will isolate on each side and I think that would look good too. The lady (Rhonda) who did the demo also had glued a piece of veneer between the main piece and the applique. That made a nice outline around the feature.
