    All I can say is WOW!
    Chev, I've got a C-Mons Wedge, Blue Star and a Blackie. They not only look good, they shave great! That man knew what he was doing. Glad you got a great shave from it for all the hard work you put into it.

    Don't know if anyone has tried this for scales but I've spoken to a couple of carpenters who build scenery for television studios here in NYC. Apparently the shop trick for quickly taking care of scratches on clear acrylic that has been sanded to a compound shape is to give the piece a light going over with a blow torch. Never tried it, will certainly bow to those that have but this is what I'm told.

    It all depends on what material you are using. One type will smooth right out, another will BROWN up and "burn"
    Didn't want to take a chance on it... Maybe I will try it on a scrap piece soon though!
