No scales for mine yet but I have used it . I have a nice set of blanks from dave but don't like big bulky scales that it takes to cover the bigger blade. I don't want to experiment with the nice material. I may have to make a test set or 2 or 3 out of something else to give it a try.

Popsicle sticks might be too small for you blade Tim, how about paint sticks to experiment with? Would be thin enough and plenty of material , I don't know about you but my paint store gives me a bunch for free. Tc

Check the second picture in post 354. They don't look the greatest in toungue depresors.... Maybe if I wrapped them in paracord?

Thanks for the great idea!

I should thank Victor for the idea of the tongue depressors. And he had them in his kit!

You guys are killing me here!

I knew I should have somehow finagled my schedule around to have made it to that meet.

I don't know anything about making razors but I sure would have loved to have seen what all goes into making one. Besides all the other things that went on there! I had a lot of things going on here as I had just move to Texas recently. But, there is always next year!

Cheers, maybe is the stars stay in line I will see you in Iowa.

LETS SEE PICS

Hey guys I just put together a .pdf file that has the pictures and names and SRP names of the guys that were at the 4th Annual North Central Texas Razor Meet at Charlie Lewis Razor Workshop
If you want a copy PM me and I will send one to you. I may have to use your email address to do so but I can get that off the SRP site unless you want to send it to me.
Some of the pics turned out well and others are a bit blurry but you can actually tell who is who.
I did this so when we meet again we won't forget who is who.

Wonderful Bill!

Next year I'll still be with the hat, but without the prescription glasses

**Utopian** · 05-20-2016, 05:37 AM

Does that mean Lasik for you?

**ScottGoodman** · 05-20-2016, 03:13 PM

Hopefully there will be "less" of me there!
