After I fitted the wedge / sanded it down flush, I disassembled so that I could buff the ends of the wedge up and finish the insides of the wood. I went over the edges of the wood with 1000 grit to knock down any sharp edges, and I did the wedge area of the insides of the scales too, not realizing I shoulda left the sharp edges. My pics here make the gaps look way more pronounced than it is in person...minor mistake but one I won't make again.
