I realize for historical purposes we like to keep everything we can to original but I'm wondering about these scales if I should just make some new ones? The blade cleaned up beautifully and I do have someone who can do the calligraphy on a new scale.
    What do you guys think and what would you do?
    Heck, I'd use 'em! just the way they are!
    You can have everything, and still not have enough.
    I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

    I think I'd pin them. If the break holds then leave it be. If it breaks then put some liners on them.

    Thank you all!
    I have zero experience with liners. I wouldn't know where to start but that's more than half the fun and enjoyment! A tip of the hat to all!
