cabochon source needed

[Darrin]

I have a customer that wants 8 bottle stoppers made, all identical( This is gonna be tricky) and wants the top to have the first letter of his last name on it. Im trying to locate someone who sells these cabochon things with letters in them. Any one know where to locate such an item???
Thanks folks!

Bill at AS sells some also.

you might want to see if one of the engravers thinks they can engrave the letter on the glass afterwards. It would likely make it look a lot better than the letters off ebay (sorry, but those look cheesy).

How quick do you need them? You may want to contact our member here, Ed Davidson (YoYo Spin). He may be able to make them for you, and whatever he makes, WILL NOT be cheesy! I saw a demo he did at our woodturner's meeting, and this guy is good. Really good.

Try him, if he doesn't or can't do them he'll know who can.

Try a sewing store and look for buttons.

by the way, whenever I think of Carbacons, I always think of the Dichroic Glass ones like this.

So that's why I mentioned glass above.
