This is probably basic, but I have not come across this subject in the Workshop stickies.

I am doing a light restore and need to replace the scales. I have considered making scales, but have been seeing some old razors locally that are going cheap because the blade is chipped, hone wear, etc. The scales on these old razors are frequently in good shape. What do I need to know regarding measurements? Or is there a thread discussing this topic someone can direct me to?

For what it is worth, I am working on a 6/8 Pipe razor.
