Good to know you made it home in one piece. I didn't get to make it but hope to be there next year.

I think you were answering me Tc. Thanks. it's weird that your message posted before mine. I have my time set on my computer according to time on my cable box & my cell phone since they are automatically set through a satellite or at least the cell phone is. Guess it's the server........

So Paco, where all did you end up going on your trip West? Did you get to ski? It was good seeing you again.

could not get the wife to go farther west for skiing. We went to Lubbock for a few days, then to Abilene, Luckenback, then a state park in west La.,near Lake Charles. The last stop was Palmetto island SP., that Carolyn really likes. Stayed there a week.

Bill , How did your razor turn out?

By the way how did everyone's razors turn out? I have not finished mine yet.

Not done yet, but it don't look to bad so far. We may have to start a thread to track all the razors made by us hacks to see the progress. Tc

Doesn't sound like a bad idea. Mine isn't finished either, need to do final grind and hone the edge.

I like that idea. After going through the pictures and videos, I'm pretty curious as to how they all turned out. Some cool looking stuff!

Paco,
I honed it on Sunday and shaved with it on Sunday night. It actually shaved nicely. I am pondering modifying it a bit by maybe wrapping the handle with something cool looking, haven't decided with what yet. Glad your trip turned out well for you and especially your wife. Cheers, maybe is the stars stay in line I will see you in Iowa.

TC,
That is a good idea. We could post pics with the scales attached and other refinements that were done to the razors. I know that the blades that I saw had really good potential which actually was all of them.

Cheers,
Bill
