    Looks good to me. What did you not like about the bone?

    I’m interested too. I just did my first set of bone scales and am in love so far.

    The difficulty cutting and the smell more than anything. So far it is just not enjoyable to work with. To me anyhow.

    I suspect the use of power tools contributed to the smell problem. It’s a natural material and the friction generated heat of fast moving metal on bone generates a very unpleasant odour. When you watch bone carver YouTube videos, they warn about that, but those who use handtools don’t seem to comment on it.
