How do you demo that? Isn’t just a matter of mixing the turquoise with epoxy, filling the hole, and sanding to smoothness? Is there more to it than that? I’ve used copper and other metal powders, turquoise only once.

Raining like crazy here in Western NC so keeping it simple today. Maple with bark inclusion, 13-1/2” x 4-1/2”. I had bought some turquoise to fill a couple voids in bowls for practice. This one has some nice grain and I think turquoise looks better in darker wood. So I’ll think on this a while before deciding. I do have several walnut bowls drying, some with cracks so may try with one of those.
