Thread: Faultless w/ Aluminium Scales Resto.

Howdy!
Today I decided that my big custom jobs dragging on needed to wait while I get a simple restoration done that has been eating at me for a while. And it was very satisfying! Im happy how it turned out.
Faultless Aluminium scales that were looking haggard. A blade that was terribly pitted and didnt match the scales in more than one way. Found a Faultless blade a while back on the Bay to go with these scales and finally put the two together.
I spent about 2 hours on the blade with the greaseless compound to get it right and about and hour on the scales.
Really hope I can get these pictures to upload.. lets see..

Okay Im having such trouble uploading pictures! Ugh
My camera I bought was total junk, took it back. So my phone is fine but wont plug into computer for some reason. So I sent pics to my email, and they look great. Then I saved to my computer but the pics I downloaded to my computer are either too small like the one you see here... or they are too big and wont upload to this thread... Im so not the computer guy.
Can anyone help? Maybe Ill need to call my neighbor over for coffee tomorrow and see if he will help.
Im sorry the picture is so small. When I get this figured out Ill post more tomorrow.
Anyway good night all.

Any modern phone that charges via a usb type cable will connect to a computer, you just have to get the cable with the correct ends. I use Drop Box and WiFi so all my phone pics automatically upload to my PC. Although, it might be a little techy, connecting your phone to your PC via WiFi You can use MS Paint do do basic resizing, it comes with Windows. If bandwidth isn't a problem, pics you upload here are automatically resized to 700 pixel max resolution. I resize and tweak all my pics with Gimp, free gnu software.

Thanks Hart, I'm gonna try those out. I should have learned this tech stuff already. Always relied on friends while I studied other areas. But it's time.

Even with out a good sized photo, the job looks to have been worth the doing of.!
