    Default Wooden scales

    Hi all,

    I have some old wooden planes laying around that are damaged, so I figured I might as well re-use some of the wood
    they're laminated plane soles and I have 3 different woods available to make scales out of:

    - Lignum Vitae
    - Ekki
    - Holm Oak

    These woods seem pretty good with water and moisture, but I haven't worked with them much.

    Lignum Vitae and Ekki seem to do specially good.

    Woud these be good choices to make scales out of from a moisture / water / durability perspective?
    From what I've read and was told I think they'd be excellent choices
    I have it on hand so I might as well go for it, just wondering if anyone has experience with these woods?
