Oh boy !!!
OK here is the truth, basically you have to build the scales either WAY off of factory spec, or you built for beauty and looks, instead of functionality to miss the whole tang... It really isn't all that hard to get them to balance, it might look like it is, but it isn't... :)
Basically the fancier the scales, and the farther out people go with materials, the harder it gets to balance them... Then the excuses start :D
And also Baldy I have several basic designs, if you actually compare my scales you will see the basic shape in there for each size razor, I might change the wedge end design slightly, and tweak a pivot shape here and there, but the basic design is from the factory set I take off the razor, or from a few that I know will fit and balance...
