    Awesome Max !
    Is that ground on a single wheel.? It is so fine it doesn't look like a typical quarter grind.

    It cuts, sands and works just like most of our scale materials used. It does polish up to a high glossy shine with metal polish. It's a bit messy when sanding as the metal particles fly and stick to everything. A dust mask is a must. Dry sanding is a true metal dust nightmare. Wet sanding counters the dry dust but the water is just plain nasty.

    your rescales/restores always are a joy to view but seeing your touch from steel to scales is out of this world.

    Absolutely fantastic work Max!

    Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.
