Make a carrier. Useing a thin blade, table saw a groove in a flat scrap board which is just wide enough to grip the ebony leaving the edge to be planed upwards and exposed as much as you want to trim off. You can use a file or a plane at an angle over the rest. If the grip is good enough you can even run it under the thickness planer on a very light cut at a slight angle. -- Dana Emery To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
