A source of free scale pin washers from old jeans. Drill out the rivet and pry/punch the washer off. It is a neat washer with the hole insert stamped in. I shall show them on my next set of fabricated scales. Robert

Historically they are copper, however, some are a cheaper metal with a copper patina/wash.
