I noticed today that my teak stearing wheel (repro) inlay is starting to pull away from the wood grip.
Has anyone had this happen before?
There's a fellow in Canada who makes and repairs/restores teak wheels - I think his handle is "Teakmaster"; there's probably a member here that can post his contact info.
He just did the Rose Wood inlay repair on my original teak wheel. As well refinishing. It came out looking like a brand new steering wheel. I am very happy with the results. He is located west of Toronto.

Thanks for the pointers.
This wheel is only 3 years old. Maybe the vendor (Virginia Vettes) can put me in touch with the guy who built my wheel?
I think Dick (Virginia Vettes) has always sold teak wheels made by Eric Freeman, but Eric retired a couple of years ago; give Dick a call and see if he has another supplier lined up.

Teak inlay (dark strip of wood) is peeling away from wheel.
