    Default The best inlays....who would you recommend?

    It seems pretty hard to find people who advertise their shell inlays. I guess it's because most people do their own. I have found some amazing work overseas including some from expats. Who in Australia does them? Show us some of their work if you can and it would be even better if you can give an approximate cost.

    The fast track might be to look for luthiers doing guitar/mandolin & banjo necks.
    The greatest range of supplies will be Stewart-MacDonald (Stew-Mac) luthier's supply.
    I carve shapes from shells to use as inlay in some of my wood carvings but it's crude by comparison.
