Here is where I stand on my inlay work on a By My Hand Designs Type 11 hilt.
I've yet to do the gap cleanup, final sanding, and polishing.
This is my first idea:

Update for what I got done today.
Note: I have a different cross-hilt than pictured on their page as it was what they had in stock in my size (and in my idea pic). Mine is more an elongated oval. It's harder to inlay but it will catch more shots so it's a good trade.

Very nice! Before I thought to look here for instructions (duh!) I tried drilling holes and peening copper nubs into them. Made a upside down triangle patern out of the circles
