Fantastic job! How did you recreate the artwork? Did you photograph or scan the originals?

WOW.... that is totally amazing. What is the material you used to make those scales?
I'm not asking for trade secrets or anything but how the heck did you make a set of scales like that?

:shock:

Most excellent! I have one of those that I picked up cheap at a gun show. The original scales were long gone and had what looked like paint stirring sticks glued on. Orvet put a nice set of walnut handles on it from my dad’s wood pile.

It’s good to see what mine probably originally looked like. You did a wonderful job as usual.
