ebony inlay - quick question

Howdy,

I'd like to inlay a big initial "G", uppercase, no enclosed spaces, in
a maple cabinet top. Size is about 3-1/2 - 4" maximum. Aside from
getting it cut and fit right, will wood movement cause serious
problems down the road?

if the wood is already dried and there are no major humidity changes you
should be just fine...make sure to use a strong wood glue like
titebond....you can use ebony dust mixed with epoxy to fill in small
cavities.

country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag
the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a
parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can
always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have
to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for
lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."
