I had a teacher in school that used to CHEW lead solder. I wonder if he's still alive...
But yeah in that Joseph Rodgers 4 day set I got it has the lead (or pewter) wedges, and I really like the weight balance. Thanks for the heads up about using that on restores...

As far as glue, I tried that on one razor but my wedge was not perfect enough, and now when I open the razor it pops that glue each time. It sets up enough after closing that it keeps popping when I open it
