    Never made any. It's true! Love me some scales, however!

    I cannot imagine the time you have spent cursing the net gathering all of the beautiful scales that you have. My challenge is I love making them and the more complicated the better. I will be build some MOP on silver soon enough.

    There is a bit of gratitude when looking at something that you've made yourself, no matter what materials were used.
    Its your own personal signature.

    True, but some do not posses the talent, nor desire to go from scratch.
    I have made some, I suppose, by proxy.
    Matched, sanded, aligned, and drilled my fair share.
    Love me some scales.
    Now....Outback can make some scales!

    You have done some pretty slick thing Tom, and without doing it from scratch.

    MGM has in fact made some very nice scales. A signature might be a good way of stating it too.

    I have seen a lot of nice work here from many people.

    We all have our own speed and goals.

    Keep the good work rolling my friends!

    If it was not your goal I don't know why anyone would.

    Amazing work on the scrimshaw Rez, you sir, are a craftsman for sure.

    Tom does amazing work restoring. There is no question there.

    My hands have been full with the little ones, which to me is the greatest thing there is to do. But soon I think dad will get some free time to get back to my projects. I really can't wait to get to shaving with the FBU and couple others I have been tinkering with
