    Hey FrankenWashie, I was wondering if by any chance you might have some spare pieces of rosewood lying around that's about 2mm thick?, I need some for some restoration work I'm doing on my Cherry Red PRS SE Custom 24 guitar, I need to re-build the nut-shelf back to where it originally was so I can install a proper PRS nut on the guitar, I have since abandoned the whole idea of installing a Floyd on it and I want to restore it back to what it was when I first bought it, with a PRS style trem-system on it.

    If you don't have any rosewood, any wood that looks similar to my PRS SE C24's fretboard will do, as long as it's about 2mm thick, here's a pic of my SE C24's fretboard for reference:

    Hi Doc, I can have a hunt through my small scraps box (when I find it, a lot of stuff is still displaced from water ingress to the lab).
    I’m pretty sure I’ve got something suitable

    Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.

    Cheers mate, I'm not in a real hurry for it so it's not terribly urgent cause I've got plenty of other stuff to work on but if you can find something suitable that would be awesome.
