Now share with the class your very clever source for the acrylic. (I am probably going to copy it to replace a bad set on a matched pair of Genco's I have by the way. thanks for the idea)

www.mcmaster.com also sells floro acrylic in different colors.
Looks great!
Interesting I never thought of checking McMaster and when I serched for Acrylic the site never popped up. their prices are almost the cheapest I have seen, and they have 2 more color varieties than anyone else.Quote:

wow! Time to go buy some of them clipboards!
That's sweet!
Hmm Clever, my first thought was I have a clipboard at work that I got from Walmart with that color, then it hit me as I read it below..
Very very nice job there sir.
Great looking razor.
The contrast between the vintage blade and the very modern scale materials and design are particularly interesting. The fact that the scales are made from a humble Wal-Mart clipboard makes them even cooler.
Brilliant pictures, old and new blended together in a great way:)
i would see your scales in the new tron movie :P:P
Great scales, how thick is the clipboard material, did you have to buff them out after you sanded them? Do you have any tips when working with the plastic. Does it crack easy, and what did you buff it with after cutting them out?
