Default Tagua Nuts

Their meat is a beautiful substitute for ivory, but it's incredibly hard and
I suspect that metalworking techniques are more appropriate than woodworking
ones. Does anyone have any links to web sites that discuss techniques for
working them or know of any books that discuss them?
TIA
Norm
