I used to buy all my bone nut and saddles from a vendor think in San Francisco area Christie but for life of me can't find that number or site. Anyone here buy this from her now and is she still in business? Need to buy a bulk order.

And yes, know I can go to the butcher shop and buy the bone and mill it. Have done that, and at this time don't want to mess with that.

Hey Stan - Hope that all is well with you!

Cristie Song, Crislin Trading Co. and yes they are very much in business and we buy lots of our blanks from her as well.

Just Google chrislintrading.com and that should get you there.

I buy from Inlaidartist on ebay, their bone blanks are cheap when you buy in 100+ blanks (less than 50 cents a blank)
