Hi all, I'll be making my first pair of scales in a few days.

I need a little advice.

I have a Filarmonica and a Tuckmar with synthetic handles

which are 3 mm thick.

Should I buy blocks of horn or bone in that thickness?

Should I buy blocks less or more thick if not synthetic?

What about the wedges? What kind of material do you recommend and how

thick do they have to be ?

I did try the Google search but I didn't find any helpful threads.

I hope you guys haven't replied to similar threads a million times.

I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks.
