Yes, I'm still here! Sorry for the big gap in between postings. I have been feverishly working on a series of new belt buckles and it's been quite exciting! I explore a couple new techniques in the buckle creation one of which I'm quite familiar with, i.e. bent lamination. I used bent lamination extensively as seen below in my graduation chair project from the Fine Furniture Program offered at Camosun College in Victoria, BC.
The second technique that I employ in the buckles is the use of colored epoxy resin inlays. It sounds like a difficult process but once you achieve the right mix and color it is actually quite a fun process. Now I'll share a few pictures of what I have been up to these past few weeks. So hope you enjoy!
PS...these belt buckles are available for purchase at http://www.etsy.com/shop/mokajadedesigns

| Chou Chair-grad project a true labor of love! |

| The curve adds dimension to an otherwise flat piece of wood. |

| The buckle back hardware is attached using epoxy and is also screwed in place for added strength |
Thanks for looking!
