Really awesome looking material choice, that looks fantastic! That same CF would’ve been a really great choice for the Kapara.Ramonade wrote: ↑Mon Mar 27, 2023 9:49 amI played with the big brother yesterday and wanted to show the result ! Did not feel the need for a new thread for it though .
I used some carbon fiber and I have to say that I'm really pleased with the result for my first attempt at folder scale(s) !

Re: Watu...AKA Lil Chokwe
I'm eyeing at way too expensive for me (for now) tooling, more and more, each day...
For now, scales that don't include nested liners should be ok ! I want to make more with my own stuff just to be sure to be able to replicate as good or better, but it's on a good way
In the collection : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

Re: Watu...AKA Lil Chokwe
And of course, thanks everyone else for your kind words ! I've ordered some of the same material for the Watu. Its gonna be another level of work but I'm impatient to start!
I'd love to have a Kapara in hand and see if I could make some scales for it too. Sadly Ive stopped buying for the first time since I started. I need to put money aside now
