    Gorgeous overall.

    Thank you for noticing I cut these off of a block just for that reason, so the grain follows from scale to scale just like wood... Good eye...

    excellent. I love the look of the scales. I am also heavily biased to blue's and greens.

    I'm not a wedge lover these days but I love what you've done with those scales Glen.
    Obviously cut from a block.. You don't always get pattern symmetry like that from sheet acrylic.
