Thread: Frustrated with 1K bevel

[QUOTE=gearhead222;1140614]Thanx again guys! Tried 100 or so strokes with the Imperial Razor "The Improved Eagle Razor" with tape on the spline on 220 grit and then tried around 80 strokes on the 1000 grit. before going to 40 or so strokes on the 4K and 8K each. Was not as sharp as I'd like, and so I went back to the 1000 grit and tried to get a shaveable bevel with no luck!

gearhead..... Are you changing the tape after each 40-50 strokes or so??? Don't use the same piece of tape for the entire process. Electrical tape is approximately .007 " and extended use of the same piece of tape will wear the tape thinner and might be causing problems for you.
