Hi Hammar,

thanks for your compliments.  For these pats I reactivated my jigsaw-skills from boyhood. I am happy that it worked well. 

I had two pattern of 'pats' -left and right. 8 layerof .5mm mapple veneer were tacked between each 1 or 2mm fine birchply(aeroplane-ply) . The paper pattern glued on top. the rest was carefull, sensible and patient jigsaw work in the afternoon sun on my terrace. after 1.5 -2 h i had ruined 3 jigsaw blades, but could hold sufficient fine pats for the decoration on the foredeck. 

If interested i have photos of this operation. 

Reinhold

I would never have the patients for that kind of work.
