Finally Finished the Bed
Took out the old bed wood, cut all new wood and finally got it all back together. First pic is the old bed.

Re: Finally Finished the Bed
Very nice! What did you use to cut for the inlays? A router?

Re: Finally Finished the Bed
Thanks, Yes a router, cut the pattern out on 1/4 luan, clamped it to the board and routed out for the inlay, squared it off with a chisel. then cut the bow tie out of the walnut, then slowly sanded it to fit into the inlay leaving it about 1/8 or so high and sanded it smooth, covered with 4 coats of spar urathane.

Re: Finally Finished the Bed
Looks great! I like the light ash color against the bed color. Really makes it pop!
