Yea, more scales...

Here's a few more sets of scales I finished up today. I apologize for the dust. I left my tack and buffing cloths at the shop but at least there's no fingerprints this time...LOL

The first is Buffalo horn with some cool striations, w/Turquoise wedge.

The second is a poly acrylic synthetic blend backed with Black G10 w'Horn wedge.

The third is Birdseye Maple lined with G10 and an old lead wedge, finished with Ren. Wax.

The last was just a set of Black Marble acrylic that I burned in a Paisley patterns and filled with gold fill paint and sealed with Ren. wax.

Very nice! I really like the piece of horn you've selected. Great job & thanks for the eye candy. Don.

That Birdseye Maple would look good on a vintage Thiers-Issard.

I like em all, very cool.

It sure would be but I only have a few, you can all send me some or I can send out the scales.

I really really like the ones with the paisely pattern. They look like they belong on a razor.

You melted that? Did you have some kind of plate with the relief cut out and stamp it, or do it by hand?

Melted, burned....my common slang for etching, cutting or engraving with my laser....sorry for the confusion.

Lucky or broke...LOL

definitely lucky! how much did the laser set you back?

Those are really great looking scales for sure.

Ct, wow! Those look great!!

I'm going to be starting my first ever scales soon and am very excited since viewing those beauties. If mine turn out half as nice as those I'll be stoked. PM sent.

I'll trade you some blades for that laser!
