    Default Look what you made me do!

    Well now you guys have done it....

    With all these restores going on and the videos from gssixgun and 10Pups restoring the Reaper, I wanted to jump on the bandwagon.

    I have a DD Goldedge that had cracked scales and I thought what the heck....
    I can TRY and get the inlays off and make some scales and etc...

    Inlays came off pretty good:

    Let's hope I didn't bite off more than I can chew!

    Wish me luck... I think I am gonna need it![/I]

    If you got that far I have no doubt you can go the rest of the way.

    I was "SMART enough" to make TWO rough sets of scales in Yellowheart just in case:

    Hope I didn't mess up by putting the holes in already?

    So far so good! you got the inlays off without damage, and made two sets of scales, interesting to see a duck in wood scales.
