I could probably get the bridge pins I want from Gurian, but at this point, I don't want to buy a large quantity. Maybe a dozen sets or so, mostly bone but maybe some ebony or other woods, too. 3 degree taper, unslotted. Any leads? Thanks!

Have you considered initiating a group buy? You may only need another 3-5 participants.

I'd jump in except that I prefer 5* pins.

That's a good idea, JJ, and may be the best way to go.

David Warther supplies some dynamite bone and ivory pins in 3 and 5 degree taper, slotted or not. You can find him here: http://www.ivorybuyer.com/museum1.htm They are US made and extremely well fabricated.

I can run off a bunch of unslotted pins, if there is demand for them. It would have to be a group buy type situation as I'm going to be shutting down small-orders pretty soon.

Thank you! This looks great, and David replied to my email inquiry right away. I'm putting together an order.
