Thought I would share this with all the guitar folks who enjoy inlay and its materials. Tom Schotland who invented this stuff lives just down the road a mile from my shop. He has stopped by often in the last two years to show me the newest materials he is experimenting with. It's a lot of fun when he does that!

By Bruce Petros. He cuts it .050 on a laser cutter and can make these rosettes without the strips breaking during the bend. Very nice!!!
