Lynn Abrams Geneva 6/8 with mahogony scales

Hi All,

I have a fabulous 6/8 Geneva from Lynn which shaves like you would expect. The original scales were plain black, no markings etc.. so quite bland.

I made a set of mahogony scales with a slight difference. At the wedge end I made a brass "staple" so one side shows a bar, the other two ends. I also used double washers at the pivot to give a little more definition and chunkiness.

I'm very please with the outcome and really like the grain and richness of colour.

shes a beaut

I really like those scales.

Looking good!:)

exellent ,great idea with the staple,different but effective
kind regards Peter

Mahogony's nice. Sure looks good to me.

Gary,

Very nice scales. I like the staple idea too. It's great to see all these folks making their own scales these days.
