I'm in need of 2 black screw in strap buttons with Paua dots. Ebony would be my preference, but black buffalo horn would be acceptable as well. Lmi is out of these buttons and I am not sure where else to get them. Or if there is one of you guys who has two that they could send me that would be great. thanks |

Hey Josh, have you tryed David Freeman at Timeless Instruments. He may have what you need, although it's not listed on his website. |

Rod, I hadn't thought of David. I'll give him a try and see if he has anything. It seems to be pretty easy to find ebony with MOP dots, but paua seems to be another matter all together. |

Josh, I have ebony strap buttons and Paua dots. It would not be a big deal at all to add some dots to the buttons. So let me know if you are still stuck. Shane |

Alas...not everything....I only have bridge pins with paua in ebony, then plain ebony and boxwood. I have MOP dots but not gold. I continue to get more and different supplies but it takes time...oh ya, and money  .
Thanks Rod Shane |

I dont know of anyone who has ebony/gold mop pins - I had to make them a couple years back. Its actually easier than you think, just dont try to drill the hole with a drill bit though, use a router bit in the drill press, at least as a centre, in order to drill with a twist to the correct pearl size. |
