Celtic knot

[alan morrison]

I wanted to try a knot with 5 layers of veneer.
Changed the glue so the edges are a bit cleaner.

Hello Ian. I previously used CA glue ( No Nonsense from Screwfix ) a fairly bog standard glue which is comparable to others that I have used in the past, though leaves a blurry edge to segments like these.
For this segmenting I switched to a CA glue which dries clear, leaving a sharper edge to the veneers. It is called Gluboost and I got mine from a luthier.

If you go into the wood turned pens forum you can see what I mean by blurry edges with the pen I posted in the thread 'Isn't it funny'
