In performing this method, the woodcarving artist selects the wood that has the desired and appropriate dimensions and material in accordance with the desired design, and by transferring the design on it by carbon or sticking it directly on the wood surface, he cuts the edges and borders of the design. After the initial cutting of all the boundaries of the design, which is usually done with the Shafreh or Takht-e-Takht cave, the inlaid artist works with the suitable flat-shaped cave to remove the load from the field; This stage of the work should be performed in such a way that the chip removal from the background surface does not cause unevenness, and in case of unevenness, it should be very small so that in the next steps, if re-cutting is done, the cutting can be done easily.
In the end, the field of work is very comfortable, simple and pleasantly smooth. The amount of load removal from the field of effect is done according to the type and amount of protrusion required, which determines the type of effect in terms of prominence. Due to the fact that cutting and cutting the background is only to reach the stage of shaping and polishing the work, and it takes the most time to do the work, so some woodcarvers leave the task to the students and in some cases with industrial tools. And an electrician like Farz will pick up the background load; In the end, with the final modification of the background, the effect is ready to be paved and shaped. It is at this point that the inlaid artist demonstrates his power, ability, and talent, and creates a beautiful and charming role with the right and principled formations.
At the end of the work, sanding and other tools are used to pay for the final work so that the work has a double beauty. It should not be overlooked that in the final payment, the less sandpaper and the sharper the sharpness of the groove, the more visible the polish will be and the more beautiful the effect will be.
