This section requires me to inlay the frogs eye, though there is no entry point for the saw.
I simply drill a small hole, feed one end of the jewelers saw blade through, and re-install the blade.This technique is also handy when a section needs to be cut from the center of a large inlay blank.
Once all of the sections are cut out they can be glued together with Cyanoacrylate, Epoxy, etc. to join them into a single piece.
After the glue has cured, clean up the edges, and place the inlay on the surface to be inlayed.The inlay can be held by hand, by small pieces of double sided tape, or by some low tack glue.
I use a 0.3mm technical pencil to trace out the inlay, though a scribe or larger diameter pencil can be used.
