Inlay material?

[Aquinas]

Where do you guys get your inlay material? I want to get some Ivory or bone colored inlay material. Thanks

A word of warning on AAP's celluloid...I haven't used it yet, but apparently it can catch fire if your tools aren't sharp. It sure is pretty, though.

Boone Trading has ivory and some bone.

If you really want ivory, I sugget David Warther and Co:
http://www.ivoryseller.com/

He knows exactly what pipe makers are looking for, and he's a great source of knowledge about ivory as well.

For bone, take a look at any of the knife supply shops. Bone knife scales are relatively inexpensive.

If all you want is something that looks like bone or ivory, and would prefer sythetics, look to the penmaking and woodturning outlets:

Also, Delvies plastics has acrylic sheet that comes in the right colors:

For an "ivory" (off white) color, I've been using plastic light switch covers. They're pretty consistently .070" [1.8mm] thick, cheap and available at any hardware store.
