There is a local barber that has a car chair for kids in his shop. The car is on a pole and the kids sit in it. I'm not sure if he's still in business, but he has some neat stuff in his shop.

Love that show!

By the looks of the wedge those scales are a shrinking also. Or did you already say that....Hard to keep up on this thread!

I'm not going to say what it is yet, you'll have to see what it is when finished. I've been wanting to try this for a while. All I'll say is that I was inspired by a woodworker/woodturner name Kyle Toth.

I just wish they found more barber shop stuff.

A friend of mine visited the shop and got to meet Mike Wolf. She said he is a lot like he is on the show- genuine, nice, and outgoing.

We can hope they don't!

All this Red Imp talk has got me looking at them on eBay and I came across this extreme example of shrunken scales. This is a Case version and the blade actually extends beyond the end of the scales!
