I am wanting a cue made out of Ebony and Ivory. I guess Bone will suffice due to ivory restrictions. Nothing fancy. Just want some rectangles in the butt of the cue and maybe four points. We could discuss specifics later.

Anybody?

I recommend Elforyn in place of the bone. I could supply pictures if you need a sample of it .
I have no idea who's taking orders.

Yea, you'll probably have to go with elforyn. Ivory is out of the question for your budget of 1.5-2K
And finding bone that's pre processed long enough for points would be difficult unless you bought a couple leg bones and cut them out yourself..
 
Camel bone is considered dense and similar to ele ivory so I've read.
Looks long and large enough for pt pieces.
Never seen any in cues nor have I ever worked with any but I may have to now.
Not sure what problems there may be with the feds if they were looking at it.
 
If you want ivory, you could consider Mammoth ivory. There has been no recorded Mammoth kill for the ivory in the recent past :)

I am not sure about Indiana or USA as a whole but in Europe (they are normally really strict compared to USA), Mommoth ivory is perfectly legal. There, price and availability is more the problem. And Mammoth ivory is not really white, but rather cream or even light blue because of the sediments where the tusk was laying a few thousand years.

In knife making, Mommoth ivory is very common. It can be distinguished under UV light from elephant as the Schrager lines have a different angle.

Sounds great in conversation

A direct quote from an Alaskan F&W official,

We don't don't care when or where it came from. If we see it. Shit will hit the fan!

Seriously,
Check out Elforyn with grain.
