    Default First attempt at making scales

    This is my first try at making scales. The razor is an old Jernbolaget Eskilstuna Sweden that I have had for many years and finally got around to start to use. The old bone scales were warped so I had to be really careful not to ruin the edge that I'm trying to create. Therefore I decided to have a go at new scales.
    They are far from great, I know that but, anyway... At least I don't have to worry about the edge anymore.
    Unable to find brass I had to go for copper from electrical wire, for the pins. No washers around either so I hammered out some copper to make the interior washers.
    Any comments, thoughts, suggestions are most welcome.

    Mats
