A few months ago I posted a thread about Ryan's New Flexiab Strips. I was talking with Kevin and he was going to make them available for sale. But right after that, Kevin decided to improve the strips and the whole thing got redesigned. The end result is amazing! Inlaing Abalone will be as easy as laying a strip of purfling!
The strips will be available for purchase through different vendors in a few months but if anyone wants to try some out before they go on the market I will get with Kevin and we'll come up with a special deal so my forumites can get their hands of some....

Let me know,
Thanks

There will be only one size I think. Kevin is working out the details to sell the A4 kerfing. I don't know when that'll happen...

guys,
just for clarification, the FlexiAb Strips are not for rosettes. They are flexible Abalone strips to use as soundboard or back purflings.In the next couple of days I will post all details and specs

thanks,
