    Great work. I love this material The three woods I would have for my first wooden scales is black palm, ebony and this being the first choice. Great material and great work on those scales, they look stunning.

    They look top quality! Respect for you for scaling four of those without a tear stain in sight. They can be a challenge!

    I'm not a big wood scale person, but that is nice.

    What do you think of the Epoxy finish vs CA? In my head i am thinking Epoxy would be a bit easier and less time when doing multiple sets of scales.
