When to use Scale Liners?
I am getting ready to start making myself some scales. I know liners are used for added strength. Does anyone have a list of woods they recommend using liners on? Does anyone use liners just for the looks? I was thinking of making some brass lined olive wood scales. I have seen olive wood scales with out liners; so are the liners necessary at all? Will they be too heavy? I personally love the look of brass liners/pins with light woods which is why I was considering that combination. All advice is welcome. Thanks fellas.
