Rivet patterns seem to be all over the place,seen some with 5 or,6 down the middle, several where, I can't make any out at all? May have something to do with the exact time period of the original or,perhaps region manufactured?
I still have MUCH to learn on these...
The scales in the picture are wood,think Birch but,that is a guess,I'm not good with wood identification by sight.
The bone ones were identical (one still is) those I cut from a section of cow pelvis,there is an area on both sides that goes from round to flat that works perfectly for this.
Ah,the benifits of rural living,I can take a walk and,find things like a cow pelvis,dried and,bleached by the sun waiting to saw up :-D
