Thread: What can I remove the pins off the scales with?

Ditto what WadePatton said in his last post above... I thought we were speaking about a SR like the one pictured on the SRP Front Page at the Top.

Your Razor is very cool Matthew! I have never seen anything like it and would love to see pics of it lying flat on a table and with a blade loaded... Just for curiosity sake!

+1 on the Q-Tip suggestion and I'll add you can smash the tips flat with a pair of pliers, hammer, etc and then it will really get in spots like that slot better... You can even remove all the cotton then whittle the rolled cardboard to a point to get deep in the angles. I don't know what they are called but the Wooden Cuticle Tools that have a spiked end and an oblique/flat/spadish end would work great as well. You can also use toothpaste as a polish loading it onto the cotton of the Q-Tip/Cotton Swab.

Lastly, just to clarify, ppm is Parts Per Million so the chlorine concentraion I was speaking of before is 5 drops Clorox/Chlorine to a 'million' drops water... The 3-5ppm is what is required for Public Pools to remain open and will sanitize as well as oxidize really anything you are likely to be concerned about. People tend to think the concentration must be higher but it does not for Pools. And, pools have stainless steel handrails as well as ladders and misc other metal parts which eventually have issues with corrosion but it takes a very, very long time... For people really concerned about sanitizing this is a super cheap and effective method.

Very cool project you have there! Have fun with it and post more pics when you are done so we can all see the results.
