Tagua Nut pieces arrived today, along with a package from Germany - Lowtech delivered goodies. Took a bit of work to get the red off. That's one tough nut. They are thin enough to use a guitar picks, and each one has been drilled near the edge.(Image removed from quote.) Not sure what sort of red material that coating is. Wonder if it can be soaked in something to remove that red substance? Maybe vinegar, to remove the red dye/coating.
Mate that looks GREAT (Image removed from quote.)Peter any problems with the nut material getting through Oz customs being organic & all that Does the dye seal it & make it ok to be brought into Oz

Yes, Tagua Slices White is natural color. Not coated with any dyes.
How to insert the pen into the scale slot. For those that have never seen a Plus scale pen slot. Courtesy of PTRSAK for using his photo.(Image removed from quote.) Question: Are the Plus scales thicker than the standard scales, to make room for the thickness of the pen?
Trying to find Tung Seed Oil proved elusive today.

A bit off topic but if anyone in the US needs supplies for finishing wooden scales like these, let me know. It's what I sell for a living, and I can get a good price on all sorts of stains and finishes. Sorry but I'm sure I wouldn't be able to ship overseas....
try mixing up a little of your epoxy and thin it with some metho or rubbing alcohol, not too much, just enough to make it runny so you can paint it on.
