and yes... I will post pics of a successful inlay :D

I used my plasma cutter to slice some steel and then filled the cuts back in with brazing rod.. sand it all down smooth and voila! inlay.

Hi Alliance
Here was my first effort at inlay. I cut in a line with a flat chisel and put a piece of copper wire and flattened it out. It didn't fill real good but has possibilities.

Sounds like there are some real possibilities with this

When I ever have time I think I will give it a shot.

...waiting for the promised picture

they're coming.. hold yer horsies!

the grinding at the end here is pretty rough.. but I just did this quick.. it's not exactly full, not the best brazing job I've ever done :P  ...but you can see the potential I'm sure.

Very cool...thanx for the idea!

What are you using to carve the steel out?

Plasma cutter - see first post
