In Response To: abalone inlay (David Drewry)

Here you are. There is a Rockler store in my area and I've looked at their shell veneer. The stuff looks pretty good. I'm planning on using some abalone on one of my boats.

Here's a quote from the online site; "Veneer Sheets- are used for striking overlays on jewelry boxes and music boxes. Each is 5-1/2 inches x 9-1/2 inches and between .010 inch to .013 inch thick. May have slight corner chipping."

: I have heard that there is a source for abalone veneer. Does anyone know
: where? I have not been able to locate it.

: Thanks
