    Default scales

    here is the scales that I made for the commission I`m really happy with these ,I know the angles a not perfect at the center but there getting better
    the pearl is 1.5mm thick the spacers are drilled with 1mm holes so the glue forms a spigot so they can`t come loose and fall out each one has 3 holes including the center brass piece
    I`m usually very critical of my work ,but I like this set
    the shell is held on with 1mm sterling silver wire glued and peened
    Now all I have to do is attach them without any thing going astray
    hope you like them
    Kind regards Peter
    PS they are being hung on a Dovo

    Look great to me!
    I don't see what you are talking about, in the way of something not matching up, but I'm sure you have spent a little more time with them than I have

    I can not wait to see the final deal!

    (What sort of spacer were you thinking of using?)
