recycling material for scales
The blade is a Union cut. Olean NY 5/8 with bad scales but didnt do nothing to blade. It is my first set of scales that I made using old clipboard for scales and emergency reflector for wedge. For my first set I think it's nice except the fact that I went to hard when I drilled the pin holes and it cracked a bit. As they say you learn with mistakes... Next step is pinning technique(I put some machined screws didnt want to crack'em up more) Need to start somewhere! sorry for bad pics

I really like the wedge too, I wanted the something that pop-out of the transparent scales and found the reflector in the garage.

Love the reflector. I like the machine screws too. I use them quite often. Sometimes I like to rearrange scales....the male version of rearranging furniture in our house.
Cheers.

I dig it. I too like the clear with unique spacer. Even without the sparkle you did a fine job.
