I was making strikers this week out of diamondwood, and when doing so, I end up with a short piece for a drop that is only about 3 in long. This stuff isn't cheap, so I decided to use the drop instead of chucking it in the trash. I glued a piece of ebony on it, and then another longer piece to the length of my strikers. Then turned them as I would like my one piece strikers. First pic is the 3 piece strikers. Second is the whole batch done this week.

Good looking strikers. Where are you purchasing your Diamondwood?
