    My guess is that tape shims are needed under the spline tape. Maybe mrsell63, who is a master at this, will chime in.

    Small pieces of tape are only applied to particular regions of the spine to lift the spine only in that area.

    Right, but how does that fix a stabilizer that is dragging on the stone?

    I did not say it would, but only answered your question of what a tape shim is. However, I figure somewhere between 12 and 17 layers should clear that stabilizer!

    Yeap the GD need geometry fixing . I have 2 mine and i have repair and hone 3 for a frends . The stabiliser must be grind with the Dremel to almost 0 , and it has other geometrical issues .The intresting is that there is no 2 razors that are the same shape - original .
    After 30 min work it gets geometrical shape 90 % close to the true shape . It hone very well , take very sharp edge , but do not hold the edge , even to the left side ot the face during a shave . Needs a regular touch up . But for the prise is unbeatable razor for beginers , to learn with it to shave and to hone , and to maintain the razors fragile edge - very sharp , but flys away very easy .
