I wanna show ya' somethin...a Scalloped Beauty

[ScottGoodman]

This is one that I had finished a while back (6 months or so), but it was naked. I have come to decide that I would rather work with steel making blades than another media making scales. The steel is 1095 that I made with rather affordable tools that pretty much anyone could afford: Ryobi 4x36 sander from a big box lumber store, a Sears wet grinder, cheap high speed buffer, lots of sandpaper, & lots of time. I'm in the process of building a 2x72 grinder quite similar to Brad's...just have a few parts to go. The scales are black horn.
