The nice thing about them is that its incredibly cheap, easy to cut, and providing a contrasting surface is as simple as applying electrical tape. With that said, I finally decided to actually make a good set of hardwood sticks (I am in hardwood wastelands down here, not much to speak of) after getting a hold of a couple of massive pallets with stringers composed of beech.
Instead of using the traditional inlay method, I found a nice alternative build on Lost Art that utilizes half moon cuts with tapered edges to create shadows.
And honestly, these beat aluminum extrusion by a mile.
