When I get started on my Muzzleloaders I'll save the scrap wood for scales as well. Even though most wood scales do little for me, there are some FINE woods out there that really shine. I'm still sanding down my sets of Manzaneta wood from my folks ranch, see what happens.

My favorits though are pretty much on the organic side of things. Horn, bone and such, plastics are functional and all but leave me flat and thats no fun...
