What a wonderful tutorial!
Thank you for sharing this info.
I am bookmarking this to refer to when I do my own scales.
Again thank you!

That scraper is a neat idea I will have to try.
Thanks Karlej.

Yea, scrapers are a huge time saver for wood or soft materials like horn or plastics, just put a sharp hook on a corner, pressure will determine the depth of cut. You can put a very nice finish on wood in a short amount of time.
Nice finish will have to get some of the Jantz compounds, was just looking at them.
Thanks for taking the time to photograph each step. Great write up and read.
An excellent job on those horn scales. They came out really well.
Fantastic, well done, very informative pictorial.
Thanks for taking the time to put it together and for sharing your skills.

Thanks much for this...even though I'm only a "user" not a "builder", it really makes me appreciate the work that went into all the nicely scaled vintage razors, as well as the re-works that are being done by the members here. I love seeing work in progress!
