    Default Wedge angle

    I am making some scales out of wood. One set is teak and is slightly under 1/8 inch thick. When I assembled them there is a 3/8 inch spread at the pivot end. It takes a slight pressure to close to blade width.

    The second set is walnut and slightly over 1/8 inch thick. The walnut scales are much stiffer. I looked at my Bill Ellis disk and he says the wedge should be about the width of the blade and a few degrees.

    Do you have any ideas on what the opening at the pivot should be before installing the blade?
