maybe they just cut strips from the sheet they used for the scales.
Saves a lot of work.

Hi Sutoris,

Yes it would but it isn't as easy as you might think to cut a very narrow strip like that from sheet metal and have it be so neat and even, the metal tends to twist because one side is being compressed and stretched differently from the other. Try cutting a very narrow (1mm) strip and you'll see what I mean. It just struck me how very even the strips were, not the easiest thing to achieve cutting it with snips or a shear of some sort.

Best,

Lucianus
