Turquoise Blue - new color for alox mods.
Very pretty vivid shade. It's hard to catch it on photos how beautiful it is.

Nice baby blue. That's a lot like Bob's first run of blue anodized scales.

Carbon fibre Climber

The scales are different thicknesses - the corkscrew side is twice the thickness of the shield scale and has both toothpick and tweezer slots to keep the thickness down.

It's not perfect - the carbon delaminated a bit while drilling and I've over peened it a bit so it's a little tight.  I'll probably take it apart and make some brass washers to replace the shield side liner anyway, so I'll get the compression right then.  As a first prototype it's ok.

Thanks all.  I've got another five sets of 91mm scale blanks drilled for more mods, but am going to wait until a) I get a better dust mask, and b) we get some decent weather so I can do the shaping on my belt sander outside.  The carbon dust is nasty stuff and there's a fine layer over everything in the shed now.

This could be the perfect ALOX toolset! Brass liners and red anodized scales would be even better looking, but...

I do not understand what is going on here. Why are you replacing the pivot?

84mm scissors all feature a screwed down construction. Sometimes the screw loosens itself after every cut. I even tried Loctite, but it didn't help.

Did you try red or green loctite?

In the past I have tightened the pivot screw by centrepunching the back side of it. Or lightly peening.

"center punching the back side" sounds dirty.

No as dirty sounding as "dot punching the backside" which was the first draft...
