Never having seen this way to build scales I offer it as amusement for those who figured this out long ago.

Thanks for tabbing out an example Dick. (Now it belongs on the tablature page! Wasn't sure where to put it.)

I think the important thing to learn for beginners is that the root is the fret you start on.
As example to tab a G scale start on the open third fret and use an appropriate pattern.
(the middle pattern)
For a beginner like me it was an epiphany.
