Need some old inlay help . . .

[dean]

Hello,

I have a an old 1958 CE-100 that needs new inlays. The old ones have either dried, cracked, shrunk or fallen out. In a perfect world, I'd be able to do the work myself - I have the skill and the time, but I'm having trouble finding a source for the old "mother-of-toilet-seat" material that Guild used. Anybody have any ideas where I might find that stuff? I can find real MOP, but I hate to get into working with that stuff - it gets pretty nasty.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Dean
