Starter kit for inlaying crushed Opal

[wolf creek knives]

I once saw a starter kit for inlaying, in my case, crushed Opal. It came with a little wooden base, a little flashlight for setting the glue, tweezers (?) and some other items. I think I saw it on the Craft Supply USA website but for the life of me I can't find it now. I think the entire package sold for around $125.00 but I can't remember. If anyone knows of the starter kit, or another brand/supplier, and can let me know I'd really appreciate it very much. Thanks in advance for any help. (it's intended for ring making but I need it for something else right now)

I would have suggested Craft Supply, but since you've already looked there, I would have been wrong. I've never shopped for this kind of material so I can't help. I hope you find it so you can make something nice for me!

Maybe this at turnerswarehouse

Wouldn't the individual pieces you need be a lot cheaper?

Yep, but I have to know what to buy and this has a list I can follow. But you are right concerning buying separately. Probably save some money that way too.

Try Turners Warehouse (https://www.turnerswarehouse.com/). They have (or at least had) some kits similar to what you mention.

You were right. The pieces I needed came to just under $50.00 with shipping. The kit I was looking at would have been just under $150.00 with shipping. Now I've got to learn how to use it and start being creative.
