I'm going to go and look for them tomorrow, if I've got them, now that I know a bit more, I'm wondering if I can get the original scales back on this puppy....even if they're bug bitten on the inside, and badly warped like Val said, would be so cool to get it back to original.

I could do that....Too lazy!

I DO know a guy.....Just saying!

If that is you, you'll be getting that puppy in the mail....I'll have to see what else I can throw in for you.

I'm wracking my brain, I'm fairly certain they're in a Thiers Issard cardboard box...now that I've got a pic of them, I'll be able to match them up.

Sheesh, JimmyHAD was right, I should have gone through hell and high water to preserve those scales....arghhh!

I might have some old horn scales for it.
Laying off the restoring of horn scales for now. All the work spaces seem filled.
Outback was doing some fine work in the old horn scales.
Got a new yob.....
Seems he has a Wostenholm challenge going on......
If you can find the old scales it may help to match something up on my end.
A pic and pin-to pin measurements could help.

...I think my son knows how to use a measuring tape......

I'm not allowed to touch the "tool box"...at all....ever...without adult supervision.

Millimeters, Phrank......As-always!
