Fat Carbon Scales
Using the new Fat Carbon material on this W&B rescale
Stuff is crazy stiff,, very tough
Burned up 3 belts thinning it down
Finally got it down to .105” and still near zero flex
Had to Sleeve the pivot hole
Specs:
Red Acrylic Wedge
Brass pins
Brass inner washers
Domed SS outer washers
Last Thought: Some of the dirtiest stuff I have ever handled"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"

So if I were to say to my wife, "hey honey you have a phat ass," that would be a compliment?

My understanding is that it is basically Kirinite mixed with Carbon Fiber once i know for sure I will come back and verify
Structurally it seems to be incredibly strong, easy to cut with the Bandsaw and Metal blades. very HARD to sand..
Looking forward to the link so i can read nmore when I get it"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"
