Definitely a guy.

At this point it was just a special one off

I knew it was special, but damnnnnnn! That is so awesome. Very cool.

I can't say thank you enough to Nathan the Machinist Jo the Machinist and CPK Mark

[Nathan the Machinist]

Will there be more scales made for the SDFK?

Yes we're doing that now. Including some in the new vintage Micarta

Oh yes!!! Dibs on a set of those new vintage Micarta!

 

[trevitrace]

How's this new vintage look on the inside? Soft splotchy like the westinghouse paper or more sharply contrasted/streaky like the other stuff?

It's a high quality material that I find attractive, but it's not like the antique Westinghouse

IMO, that’s good looking stuff and I’d want to try it out. A betting man might suggest that many will.

On occasion by virtue of career choice, I stumble across old switchgear. My eyes are forever peeled on an acquisition of antique micarta that might be of use to the community. Free to me, shipping costs to NtM if ever found and agreed upon.

Just a thought, w/ no strings attached or commitments……..

Are you making any other scales with this material? UF2? Shiv2.0?

I love the antique Micarta that comes out of old switchgear. Please keep an eye out!
