Well played men!
I cannot imagine a more deserving razor
I will post before and after pics, once I put it together. I will give you all one more opportunity to vomit.
I got the scales today. They look even better in person. I will mount them in the next couple of nights and post pics. Thanks again S****.
Can't wait to see that blade in the new scales!

Ok BigFoot, now they are waiting to see you put them in the new scales. 
On the microbolt after you cut it to length you will need to sand or file the bolt down and them back the nut off but don't take it off completely. Also, torq it down so the blade will not freely move unless you like it that way. I was going to send a rivet with it but I don't know if everyone is comfortable riveting. I have the equipment to do it also but the problem is the pins bend so easily.

What a great way for you to get practice making scales and help out a razor in need 
First off let me apologize, I said that razor had a Solingen Blade. I got my blades mixed up. This ugly dude has Sheffield Steel. It is freshly honed as well, I was darn careful changing those scales.
I was a bit nervous at first thinking I might screw something up or break the scales. It was piece of cake. I took a series of pictures through the progression.
Anyone want a set of vomit looking Scales? This was a great PIF and I now have a razor I no longer have to hide. Thanks again Mr. Wolf.

Glad that you are happy with them Bigfoot. Please make sure to thank Blackhawk too he was the one that sent me the microfasters. Also just to let you know you will not have any issue with the bottom spacer because it is epoxied into place.
Very nice!!! Looks great!!!

Now you need to let us know how well it handles (no pun intended) with the new scales.
