At first glance, nothing in woodworking should require very much in

term for it) and a glue pot will have you over $300 right there.
the parquetry i saw used a brush to brush on glue from a bottle and
used string as clamps
wood was the big expense
It's a game of artistry and precision. Relatively speaking, the cost of
the wood will seem minuscule. I still recommend the book.
