First thanks to Doc226 for sourcing a video on scaling with handtools only. For those of you who have practiced this I'd appreciate counsel (some experience with pinning but none in making my own scales). Which material would be best for my first go at it -- wood, micarta?
I've noticed Dovo scales come with brass nails instead of rods. Anyone tried pinning with 14 or 15 gauge finishing nails?
