Michael,

I suggest you give Lyn Stewart a ring on (02) 9878 3632. She is the Secretary of the NSW Marquetry Guild, and should be able to direct you to sources.

A sharp saw an a bit of thought and by power or hand you can cut a veneer off yourself, might take a few goes but a steady hand:cool: ,if you only need a wee bit then you can have a go at a bit of scrap ,never know what you find:2tsup:
