    Default Two W&B's

    Hello all, life is keeping me busy with a new job and a few other things, so I haven't been much around lately. (I promise I will be around more as soon things settle down a bit )

    I've gotten a little time in between to do some work in the workshop, the latest are these two I did for a fellow member.

    Two W&B's, one wedge and one hollow, both aprox 8/8

    First the wedge, the scales on this one had a tiny crack by the wedge pin, but was salvageable by mixing some horn filings with glue.






    Next is the hollow, here the scales were too damaged to be saved so I had to make new, replicated the originals as good as possible.






    Thanks for looking!

    Well done, two excellent restorations looking good it's always a bonus when the original scales look that good.
