Nice work Pete!

I recently tried using holly for some inlays in ebony. I had a real bad time with the grain in the holly picking up dust from the ebony when I was sanding. Any tips?

Very nice looking... but isn't it going to make alot of noise rolling on the table with everything sticking out like that??

If you do not mind me asking what machine are you using to cut out your inlays? CNC machine or panagraph? The inlays look really good and I would love to see it once you have completed the work.

I get that problem with cocobolo aswell...blast it with air to get rid of excess dust.....

I use a HASS TM-1 CNC with a fourth axes, NSK 50,000 rpm servo head

Looks like I can get a nice cosmetic surgery with that accurate machine.

In theory, it will never show any evidence of a warp...being it cannot roll.
Awesome work and also looking forward to seeing the finished product.
