New key chain patterns and a video demonstration of a liquid inlay product.

The two key chains on the left have a liquid inlay material by the name of Inlace. The product is easy to use and adds a little uniqueness to projects.

Here is a little closer look at the inlay material. Inlace comes in several different colors and textures. The one pictured is turquoise. The effect is very realistic. The product sands easily and finished to a nice shine even with 220 grit sand paper.

The pattern book below contains several patterns. They are cut from 1/8" think contrasting hardwoods. In the picture above you see a front and back view. The pattern is cut from the lighter wood then glued to the darker back. The Inlace is optional and the key chains look nice with out it also.

Inlace is a two part resin. It is mixed with a hardener and dries overnight. After it is dry it can be sanded and and polished to a nice sheen. The two part video below demonstrates how the product is used. Inlace can be purchased from some Woodcraft. Stores. You can also purchase it here.
