Thread: Tomorrow I peen!!!

After much work on my stubby scales I'm finally ready to peen. What should have been a simple rescale was a real pain in the butt. While sanding down the thickness my tape came off and one scale got thrown under the belt guard... ruined. I was pretty peeved so I dropped the project for another. I went back and remade the ruined scale, made my wedge and glued it on. The wedge was too thin for my taste. (Stupid me for using too thin of a mock up tang. Lesson learned.) Dropped it for another few projects. Came back glued an additional piece to the original wedge and sanded it all flush. Things fit well so I resanded everything back up to 2k. The wood is zebra wood with three coats of Tung oil. The blade is an I. Barber Spanish point. I may go back and do a CA finish over the Tung. Tomorrow I put her together and hit the hones. Hopefully by tomorrow night I'm shaving with it.
