Inlay Work

I know these do not look like much as of yet, but they are two pieces of inlay that I have been working on solidly for the past several days.  The first is red hearted abalam laid into ebony.  I used the classic technique of 'smush and crack', using a spoon to smash straight strips in the appropriate pockets.  The cocobolo fretboard shown below are all the pockets for the clipper ship inlay that will adorn Corey's GA.  I will post update pictures as they come through the ugly duckling stage.
