    And that smell is second only to skunk if the belt is worn and heats the horn. That "pong" lasts in the air forever!! Wet sanders unite!

    Loving the satin glow blades mate.
    Great workaround on the horn.
    I bet some of the dyes they used in the day smelled worse than the sanding process

    Nice work! I really like how you can make out the white streaks on the inside of the horn, it lends a cool little extra layer definition to the scales.
