    Default Bone Scales

    So, I picked up these bones from a third world country, not sure what they are, but decided to make some scales. I did not have a proper band saw but I think it turned out ok.

    The hardware is stainless steel, the filling is bone dust mixed with wood glue, the blade... some cheap $25 knife I have been cutting down and honing and cutting and bending and honing some more.

    Nonetheless I learned a lot! and it was fun

    Looks great, I like the natural look of it.

    Yeah, I need to take a look under a black light (I have not yet).
