    Default I've Got the Blues

    I worked over the Clauss, Carbo-Magnetic and the Blue Steel , polished up the blades and did them up in a variety of blue acrylic that I made. And since I had some left over I made a matching brush for the Blue Steel. I call in Blue Ice on Blue Steel just for fun

    As always, beautiful work. I love the watery look of the second set of scales. Thank you for sharing.

    That blue and black cracked ice is awesome. Realy dig the matching brush too. Golf claps for you sir!
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Beautiful work!

    Now did you say that you actually made the acrylic itself also... Or just made the scales out of the acrylic?

    Both razors are looking good. I like the scales and the brush handle you made. I really like translucent scales and that shade of blue is nice. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks guys,
    I made the acrylic for all three razors. Made sheets and then cut them for the scales.
    I had done these a while ago but had them out for rotation so I thought I'd post them.

    Very nicely done. All look very clean and well put together especially the set. And kudos to you for making the acrylic yourself

    How did you do that? I didn't realize that was a possible thing to do.
