Thread: Hi from Montreal

Welcome to the forum

Bob

Welcome. Glad to have ya in the group.

Welcome to the forum..

Welcome. You're probably within the right range. My (educated) guess would be 1870s maybe 1880s. I would read up on some posts about sanding, polishing, restoring. There is a tremendous amount of information in the "what are you working on," thread found in the "the workshop," forum. Enjoy and take your time. "Luck favors the prepared."

Or should I post about that elsewhere here?

Yes of course! Happy to see another coticule devotee here.

Heh, well I do now have and tend to predominantly use a synth progression, mostly just to spare my coticules the wear of midrange work, but I do strongly feel that having learned to hone first on a coti still informs the way I use any stone to some degree. Come to think of it, since it's been a little while, I do believe I'll put a coti edge on that Wade tomorrow

Salut la Belle Province. Bienvenue à toi sur le forum.

Welcome aboard.!

It’s a pleasure to welcome another Canadian coticule user to SRP.
