Increasing the size of the scale widget doesn't change the size of 
the slider, just the size of empty space around the slider.

As a hack, you could do:

 GTK_RANGE_CLASS (GTK_OBJECT (scale)->klass)->slider_width = 50;

You will have to do this immediately after creating the first scale in
your app, and it will affect all scales in the app.

Same thing should work on scrollbars, etc.
