    Sorry, Parker, it's just that no one expects a teenager to have any "wood" working skills. Sorry to be so blunt. If I were to hazard a guess, I suspect that your father and/or uncle(s) helped you make those items. But then again, when you've built your own summer cottage, then we might have some comparison -- something for you to shoot for!
    No offence intended, buddy!

    Parker, I have no doubt that you could learn to make your own scales -- after all, only one month ago you didn't know anything bout cutthroat shaving, and here you are a respected Senior Member of SRP!

    Thank you maple! When you put it like that, you make me seem like legendary of something

    I may get bored tomorrow and cut out a basic shape... if I can unpin my razor!

    Unpinning is easy. Just take a file to the pins and then a 1/16" punch to drift it out.

    Its when you want to save the scales that it can get tricky!

    Last thing from! Some are just better at other things than others! You seem to be a really good stropper from what I can tell!
