Looking for a place that I can get some mammoth ivory beads
searching on google got me necklaces.

what I want to do is to use it for the end of a lanyard sort of like
I did with this one here;

The diameter would be about 1/2" or so with a about a 1/4" hole or so.

thanks!

Thanks HH, those look right, but ya gotta buy so many!
I'll dig around ebay a little more, varying the description to search
and see what comes to the surface.

What I think I'll do when I find something will be more in the line of
this way of installing it, this is a cheap plastic bead that I had to
drill out with a knife to allow the cords to pass through, works great
to help retrieve the knife and like an imitation rolex, from a distance
doesn't look too bad ;)

Sweet, I think I'll email that place too, see if they can make them about 14 mm with a larger hole in the center!
Thanks!
