Thank you good sir. : chapeau
The less desirable tortoise material from mascraft was the sheet, not the rod stock Bill. The rod, while brittle, yielded a nice result. Kicking myself for only ordering a small length. Need more to try again at faster speed.
I'm finding the sheet, while more spotted than tortoise doesn't look too bad when you put two pieces together. Using it on that Estas rebuild.
