Maple/walnut Lumicor frames

Work commenced on Complete Spine and Headache Center's frames today. The frames are being built predominantly out of hard maple, but will include a 1/4" walnut inlay to align aesthetically with their coat rack. The maple was planed, ripped and glued as the photos show. The walnut pieces came from a 8/4 board that was exactly 6" wide. The walnut was ripped in two and then resawed into 1/4" thick material. Tomorrow, the stacked dado goes to work establishing a continuous groove for the Lumicor to slide into. Confused? It'll all come together on Tuesday...





Here's a mock-up of the edge of the frames. The corners will have a 1/4" round-over to them...
