Where can I get the tortoise binding without paying very high shipping to Oregon, seems like it is a fire hazard to ship. HELP?
Hana Lima 'Ia has faux tortoise binding and reasonable shipping rates too seeing as it's coming from Hawaii. They may not be made from the same hazardous material as some of the others, don't know, but they don't ding you for "hazardous" shipping.
After looking, the stuff is polyethylene. Here's what they say about it.
"The plastic (polythylene) binding material is flexible, no bending needed! Each set includes two pieces, enough material to bind a Baritone uke."

I've been using it often and find it easy to deal with and it looks great. I use CA glue with the stuff
