M. George & Son Goes Back On The Line.
Just wanted to share my 3rd restoration. The first one I showed you guys a few months ago; the second one,,,well don't ask.
This one took me three weeks, I'm a little slow.
I found it in a antique store in Ft. Lauderdale and it cost me $18.00.
It came with what appears to be some kind of bone scales. They did not survive the de-pinning.
I hand sanded, then used a buffer with greaseless for the first time.
The pivot hole was huge and jagged.
Clean drilled it and had to use two sleeves to get it down to a 1/16 brass rod fit.
For sleeves I used a brass 1/8 tube, then 3/32 tube inserted in that, that allowed me to insert a 1/16 brass rod.
Brass & silver nickel washers.
bubinga scales & maple wedge(almost wedge) worked with tung oil over three weeks.
The blade had chips; bread knifed, Norton 220, 4000/8000. Shapton 16000, SRD strop.
She shaved fine tonight, but not my best shaver.
Thanks for taking the time to look, all comments are welcome. My next one will be better.
