Thread: firehose strops Filler?

Gasman, thanks for doing ans sharing this research!
It is a very nice idea. I have never filled the firehose strops with anything cause i never seemed to have the need, much like MW76, I have checked with the microscope. If the strop was polishing all the edge and yes, i was, so i stopped worrying for the unevenness and the wrinkles some time ago.. you normally cant have it 100% flat.. but this is very nice idea indeed bro!

In fact, some of my japanese strops linen strops (you know, the old brown linen, not the new super stiff type that kanayamas come with now) are sort of a tubular strop just like the firehoses, and the sure come with some filler inside, much like what you are proposing here!!!

I´ll stay tuned to see your results man

Again, thanks for sharing!!
