    Wake up Rez! Lol, Roy was kind enough to send me a blank of acrylic that while I'm on leave I might delve into using for scales. Should be fun having a wild razor in hand

    Great to see you back into the shop Richard and some great looking work there.

    This, I like that scale material as well.

    I enjoy my razors that are a bit on the wild side. But that’s just me, normal blends in. I like things that pop!!

    [QUOTE=xiaotuzi;1791188]Nice work around here lately, everybody! Love that Packwood blade, Richard.
    Jmabuse - I like using honey horn too and have also had pieces that were delaminating. I hear you about all the hand sanding. Sometimes you can see potential delaminating problems before you even get started, or early in the project. I've had blanks that I could normally get two scales out of but because of delaminating I could just get one, or even none. That's the deal with natural products I guess.

    I've took a break from horn for a change and have been working on making some acrylic scales from a 6 inch pen blank. The razor is an A. Feist & Co, Lunawerk that I picked up at a flea market last summer. It had bad scales and some rust. I'm almost done with cleaning up the blade, still needs final polish. I kept the wedge and third pin spacer to reuse with the new scales. I got the scales done now so after final polish on the blade I should be able to put 'er back together.

    How big are the pen blanks your using.
    I can get them near my house, but they seem kinda small for scales.
    Definitely not going to fit the larger blades.
