Inlay
An inlay involves placing a patterned material into a recess cut into a base wood surface. This base is sometimes called the matrix or setting. After installing the inlay, the surface is sanded and finished to make everything smooth and flush.
Inlays are a great project for beginning woodworkers with patience and attention to detail. Setting an inlay offers a savvy way to cover up small woodworking mistakes or blemishes. Best of all, an inlay can make entry-level woodworking look far more advanced than it really is.
