    Default Fram 6/8

    Finding my restore queue empty and in need to do something constructive I dug out this Fram and honed it up. It shaved nicely and so I decided to polish it up and give it new shoes. Black G10,and brass wedge.

    Very nice. What do you use to shape the brass?

    I use a belt sander to taper the wedge and the disc portion of the sander to trim the wedge after it is pinned to the scales.
