New wooden scales for my Ralf Aust
Hi, All!
I have been watching videos about making scales and decided to change the plastic scales of my Ralf Aust 5/8. I was searching the woods till a found a very nice smelling fallen branch. I was told is of camphor tree. Cut the branch with a saw and from there all the way with paper sanding and following this great video's instructions:

I am happy with the result and the better feel of these wodden scales. I am trying to do a brush wodden handle now. Then perhaps I will be doing another scales from other kind of wood.
