Book Description
About the book:
Description: This is the first comprehensive book written on the uses of InLace*R resin inlay for gourd artists and wood turners. Chapters present carving techniques in gourds, mixing resin, insetting, sanding, and polishing. Step-by-step directions that can be applied to any gourd and five projects from contributing artists are include, as well as three original designs for the crafter's use. The most common challenges working with resin inlay are addressed and ten gourd artisans and a wood turner share their experiences with this decorative inlay material. An extensive gallery of gourd and wood turned art will inspire readers to add personal touches to their projects. A resource list guides readers to suggested supplies.

Inlace
I have used Inlace dyes for approximately two years on my gourds. These dyes turn your work into a piece of art. The Inlace metalics take you a further step into beautiful work that is totally different from anyone elses. I have used the leftover dyes - after drying - to use as stones in another gourd project and this sets the gourd off beautifully.
