Where can I get wood strap buttons? I've been looking around and cannot seem to find any. I know they are out there! |

Stew Mac has Ebony, Snakewood, Bone & Ivoroid strap buttons. I just installed one last week. Real nice. They also sell a screw contraption with a hex head to "thread" the hole for easier installation. It is hard to screw the button in without soem sort of "tap" |

Ditto on stewmac.com They have wood and toned metal buttons. Nearly instant turnaround on the shipping too. |

Brad I have them as well but they are just ebony and are friction fit. Drill the hole and tap them in. Shane |

Thanks, guys. I think LMI has discontinued the Mickelson products, and I had forgot that SM sold them. Couldn't see the forest for the trees! I was looking for the screw in ones, maybe ebony or snakewood. |
