Thread: MacGuire & Jago

i picked one of this brand straights up a while back in the wild for 2.50 light surface rust cleaned with scrubbing bubbles and light steel wool needs scales because one of them was replaced with thin cheap wood on one side. i either need to get a set of replacements or make a pair this will be my first scales replacement. any tips? i will post pics soon in current state.Now i need to find some scales for it.I dont want to do anything fancy with scales i just want to put some on it that will work...

i still have to clean and polish it more but life has taken priority lately... hopefully soon i can get back to finishing this one up......Still got a lot to do.

In our library is all the info you need to make scales. Most folks atempt on there first set of scales turn out very thick. Shoot for making them .080 inches thick. Is seems thin but its about right. Take the good scale and trace it onto thin cardboard for the shape.
