Here is a member's Dubl Duck Special #1. I actually reshaped the point since it looked like it had been cut down and the spine was much higher than the point. It was basically slanted down. So I reground it to what you see- kind of a slight spanish. I like it. The scales are Carbon Fiber done to the member's sketches. All pins are peened normally. I like the look better that way even though adjustables can be nice. Comments/constructive criticisms welcomed!
Wonderful! Looks slick!
How do you work with the CF/resin? Do you use sheets or have done a mould and cut the cf to size (and if so, how do you handle it)?
This is just fantastic. I'm at a loss for words.
Loving the way my little Duck turned out, top work Philly :bow
Very cool, I love the look of Carbon Fiber.

I love what you're doing with scales...simply awesome.....:bow
I think those are my favorite CF scales so far Alex, keep up the outstanding work!! :tu
:tu very nice, respect!
I get pre-moulded sheets and work from that. If you do the resin work yourself, there's a lot of room for bubbles and error, etc. it looks like without the right equipment. You can check out youtube videos on how to make carbon fiber.Quote:
