I have a Dovo Pearlex and while the original scales are nice I am wanting to change it up a bit and put a new look on it by making abalone scales. Does anybody know of it being done or if it is possible. I have abalone shells that I can use. These will be the first scales I have ever made. I have looked at the articles concerning making scales but they all have to do with wood or synthetic materials. Any advice will be much appreciated.
