Fretboard inlay. Not super clean, but I'm happy that it worked at all. (feddit.org)

Ebony/Boxwood. I did this with a CNC - but pointy inlays are still quite tricky.

The milling area of my CNC is 800x500mm, enough for guitars or even a cello. It's a Sorotec CNC with HF spindle, so "prosumer" level by German standards.
