ABS Purfling strips sources?
Looking for a good quality source of ABS Purfling. Martins GMC and LMI is where I used to get all my Purfling strips. I prefer plastic over laminate wood fiber and cannot find a suitable replacement? Any ideas out there?

Been looking for a while myself with no luck. Using BWB fiber now.

Check Allied Lutherie.
However, the only one they showed was:

SKU: IN493

It's further away, but Edco Fine Woods in BC lists three, but they are PVC:

Bluescreek has Ivroid and tortoise. You could ask John for the details.

EDIT - Ouch. $25 shipping for some little plastic pieces. Think I'll carry on with the fiber for a bit.
