Default Epoxy inlays

I am interested in learning more about Epoxy inlays. I am working with very small detail, and getting wood inlays to fit perfect can be very frustrating. I looked for some info on it, but can't seem to find much. Any help, or suggestions would be appreciated

WW,
Can you post some pics of what you are trying to do? That would give us a better idea.

I have seen epoxy inlays done only a few times in magazines. They are mostly used for smaller, more detailed inlays. The term "inlay" is loosely used. It is more of a coloured epoxy resin that is poured into a cutout. The one that I saw, was a stallion, cut out of a darker wood (like walnut) and then white resin was poured in. Quite the effect. I will do some searching and see if I can find something and possibly post a link.

I was unable to find anything on the net as well. I don't think that I am using the correct key words. I may have to visit the shop and look through a few magazines today and see if I can find something.
