wildest scale ideas
im in the process of designing a new set of scales that i feel are pretty off the wall, and i was wondering, what is the most unique and original set of scales others have done. i would love to see them, it might even help with another set i need to cook up. i do promise i wont copy the entire set, but i cant promise i wont incorperate part of an idea into mine, lolol.

I thought Vlad's violin scales were pretty cool too, but I've misplaced the photos. Bill Ellis probably has them somewhere

There was a guy a couple of years ago made a pair out of human bone. :beer2:I remember the thread but can't remember the artisan.

That is seriously cool... creepy, but cool!
Unless you lost a limb, survived the amputaion and kept it, and cleaned it up, I can't imagine where you'd ever get human bone from nowadays...

i agree cool, but creepy, and wrong.

Its a good way to be remembered by the grandkids though.
"Sorry little Jonny, Grandpa is gone, but heres a razor made from his arm..." I'm not sure I'd really want to use a razor if I'd known the person who "donated" towards it.
I would imagine making anything from human body parts would be illegal now, both from a health point of view and a disposing of remains point of view.
Cool though, and definately a good story!

I think this was the second set of scales I ever made. All done without power tools too, hacksaw, files and sandpaper. Total PITA to strop though, I'm actually planning to pull them off and make up something else when I get time.

im likely to have a PITA set of scales when this one set is done, but i dont know, we shall see, i will definately post them though. still would love to see what every one has done though
