Would timber used for picture framing be any good for making scales?
I am going to attempt to rescale some of my razors. I can imagine in the near future I might like to try my hand at making scales. I don't really have a workshop in which to do it, just on the desk or outside on balcony rail. So there is a good chance I may stuff it up. With this in mind I wanted to get some scale making material which wouldn't really matter if I stuffed it up. I was thinking some old broken furniture might be a good source of timber and then I saw an old broken picture frame we have lying around. I was wondering if the timber used for picture framing would be any good to make into scales.
I would rather use something that I have lying around than have to go out to buy timber. I don't really know how to ask for what I want in Thai.
Thanks for any advice anyone can give me.
Cheers.
