Auxiliary materials for woodworking include the following:
1. Khatam: which is made in different colors and geometric designs. The length of the lanyard is up to 30 cm and its width is up to 2.5 cm and its diameter is up to 2 mm. For cutting Khatam, a metal hair saw on zero score is used.
2. Decorative stones: Decorative stones are used after grinding and smoothing with mosaic wood in mosaics.

The polyester is mixed with crown powder or mica powder, and some car ink ink is added to change the color. For example, silver ink is used to make silver oysters, then dryers and cobalt are added to it, and it is turned on. The surface of the flat glass, which is in a flat place and is previously surrounded by paper tape 2 to 3 mm larger than the desired material level (the thickness of the artificial shell is about 2 to 3 mm), ie a total of about 6 to 7 mm to We attach carefully and firmly so that the fluid does not flow out from under the paper tape, so that the drying of the oyster must be patient in digging and using glass. Therefore, it should be dried in a place away from direct sunlight and dust particles.
