They’re junk. Mail them to me immediately for proper disposal ;)

Seriously, I have nothing to offer except for a congrats for that beautiful stuff!

Charlie, I can’t offer info of my own but there is a short blurb here.

Thanks, MrWoody. Compared to Lee Valley prices, looks like I got a bargain.

Great find Charlie.

Wonderful find. Ebay is a nice resource for wood and tools if you are selective. Now that you have these inlays you have a good excuse to get into the shop (as if you really needed one).

Thanks for sharing.

It’s getting harder and harder to find eBay bargains because everybody already is looking.
