And the test fit... viola!!! It fits! Okay, the photo's a bit blurry. Sorry, that's my right hand on the inlay, and the left hand was holding the camera. I need another set of arms like the Vitruvian Man!

I hope these photos helped someone that might be considering inlaying. It's not really that hard. I'd say it took about 30 min to get this one drawn out and routed out by hand. If I build a stitch-n-glue I'll certainly inlay something in the deck.
