Thanked: 10Aug Voss Restoration
Here are some pics of my Aug Voss restoration. This is for one of my two sons-in-Law. They both became interested in shaving with a straight razor so I restored a 5/8" Artraco for my first son-in-Law; and this 6/8" Aug Voss for son-in-law two. He didn't want the original scales (which I put in my parts drawer to be forever forgotten and lost) and so I showed him a bunch of recon stone and let him choose.
So anyway, this is the finished product. I finally realized something that was floating around in the back of my mind concerning wedges.
I searched the Wikki and read what I could find. But I had a light bulb moment, it might just be a 60watt light bulb, but at least I managed to recognize it when it flashed in the musty confines of my cerebral cortex.
Wedges are not right angle triangles nor are they isosceles triangles: they are (please correct me if I am wrong) equilateral triangles! And therefore need both sides of the wedge to be worked. I was just working one side of the wedge on the belt. This wedge is the last of the one side only wedges, I promise.
All comments and critique welcome as to errors made and the best way to correct the errors.
Kind regards
Chris
