I've been looking at differing patterns using repetitive wood figures like the rhombus pattern. While looking through ETSY items for ideas and came across this. I don't want to copy this pattern but I've got an idea of my own that I'd like to head towards but don't have a clear vision on how to proceed.
Does anyone have any input on how to approach this type of varying width pieces? I have a few ideas but they all have big question marks a few steps in. My good friend says it is a math problem. Is there some sort of math I can use to achieve a pattern along this line? I'm thinking I can use a taper jig but my mind draws a blank once strips are cut. I'm heading out to the shop now and will be running a few mock-ups to see where it goes but many times that just creates more questions. I would love any pointers should they be available.
