Need some advice on how to inlay strips of ebonized wood into maple. The strips will be 1/2" wide. Normally I would rout the groove for the inlay, glue in the strip leaving a little bit higher than the surface of the main piece, and then plane or sand the strip level with the surface. But if I do that, I will simply plane or sand off the layer of the strip that has been ebonized. Solutions?
Thanks all.
