Hoping to avoid buying a plug cutter since I will never use it again.

One source of small amounts of ebony might be tuning pegs for a cello or bass. Those for violins will be smaller. Can be turned in the lathe and easily cut off. 1 peg should be enough for several....


A good job is sometimes just a series of expertly fixed fark-ups.
Let's see.... is it 20 years experience or is it 1 years experience 20 times?
And I will have you know that I am not an old fart. I am a curmudgeon. A curmudgeon is an old fart with an extensive vocabulary and a really bad attitude.

I have some on hand - some 7/16 (what I use) and some 9/16 as well. I can mail you some no charge if needed.
