So this is my second attempt, here are the changes I made -

1 - I didn't cut all the way through the blank, just left a couple of mil
2 - I matched the thickness of the inlay to the thickness of the bandsaw blade
3 - I set the table top of the bandsaw to 45 degs as per the PowerPoint inspiration from Terry

Just wish I hadn't used acrylic for the inlay else it would have been better I think, especially in terms of the finishing - now I feel like I can really play - but please I am open to constructive criticism here so please go ahead
