Don Russell talked to the group about creating segmented objects used different woods to make a pattern of some sort. The process generally consists of creating small pieces and then glueing them together to create a pattern. The basic pattern is often repeated in creative ways to produce items such as a table top or inlays for storage chest or boxes. This process is also used to produce segmented blocks for turning bowls, Christmas ornaments or candle sticks. In fact Don returned for the following Thursday meeting on the Woodturning group Don showed that group how to produce segmented turnings.
