Thanked: 0Picked this guy up for 10 bucks!
This will be my first resto! I don't know much about the manufacturer, but I figure for $10 it's hard to go wrong!
P.S.
If anyone has recommendations on where I can order some scales, that would be great!
Thanks,
Zack

All you need is a cheap harbor freight coping saw, sand paper, and scale material (preferably already 1/8" thickness) and you can do your own

Zack, you can do it, I did. I just did a Frederick Reynolds Restore here is a before and after photo. I used all hand tools and such. No machines. You can do it.
I am very appreciative of all the knowledge and sharing each and everyone has provided me with. Look forward to future endeavors with many of you.

The sky's the limit! You can replace the broken scales with anything from pre-shaped plastic to a natural material of your choosing. Good German steel, no reason to think she'll be anything other than an excellent shaver!
