    I noticed in the pictures that the left side looks higher than the right side. It's not however. I think it's the camera angle. I promise, it's all level and straight!

    I hate it when the camera angle Gremlins show their heads!

    Back to Camera Angle Gremlins.

    I was just going to post my humble attempt at some scales and while the pin at the toe isn't Exactly inline the frigging Camera Angle Gremlins make it look like it's a mile off! I'd tried again and again to get a better pic and I guess it's just my camera.

    The scales are common hardware store oak with brass pins domed brass washers that I made and with a wedge made out of African Blackwood

    A task I did today. Many of the stones were damaged after there was some sort of a roof mounted at the wall. The customer wanted it back to the original state. So here you go.

    Cudarunner - told you we have things in common. Here is my JR Torrey. The scales were broken and I had to restore the razor. Look at how similar our scales are to each others. Is that crazy or what?

    I was wondering where my extra oak for scales went.

    Really cool razor rack. Looks like a mini little rifle rack.
