Mother Of Pearl Help
I have been asked to make a small sub-hilt and the customer has given me some MOP he wants me to use for the handle. I have never worked with this material and I am hoping for some pointers. Such as does it drill, cut and grind like other materials or do I need special drill bits etc.? It is only about 1/8" thick so I am assuming just leaving it flat, no contours is acceptable? Can I use liner material with MOP? I would think so but doesn't hurt to ask. Also I plan on using Corby bolts so I need to counterbore for these, any problems there? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.
