My first set of 24 scales.... Might add as option on my site. Made these wider than factory by request and look kinda 3-D. Made a small chisel out of a palm flat head screw driver to finish off the hex head.

Those look great! Very nice work.My first set of 24 scales....
Well, the boys took a hard loss tonight in the league tourney. They still did great, finishing second and giving the winning team their only league defeat of the season.
Monday through Wednesday, they played four games, all of them one-run differences. Lost the first one, won the next three squeakers, including a double header.
In the final elimination game tonight, the other team just had hotter bats. One kid jacked two balls, including a grand slam, and that was that.

But what kind? That's the real question.

Thos scales are looking stellar, 710!
First exam is finished, I think it went OK. Two to go. But now I'll be going in the backyard. My dad and our neighbour are boring a well, 15 meters deep, and they needed some assistance so...
And it's 30°C, lol!
I outlined them cut them down and a lot of on and off, I did grind them down on the 24, I just didn't go all the way down.Looks good...How'd you get the scales perfectly flush and not grind up the waterjet marks in the process? Guessing you take the scales off and sanded them separately?
