I have roasted my own coffe, but not made my own beer
I don't restore straights but find this interesting and will follow it. The pictures are very useful.
can't wait Glen for the rest of your posts as they unravel with your vast experience
also any other tips & tricks that others may add to your base that they have locked away in the own experiences,will hopefully learn a few new trips & easier ways of doing things
great start :tu
thanks
While I’ve never purchased a razor in very bad condition, I have on occasion been given one to clean up and hone! Well OK, more than on occasion!
Before attempting to spend my time, effort and materials I always check to see how it will hone up FIRST!
Glen may recall when I sent him a rather strange razor that my mate Tom in the UK had sent me, I was so impressed with the way that near full wedge shaved that I sent it to him to have him remove it from the scales and buff it for me!! I then re-honed it and sent it back across the Big Pond!
I paid Glen for his work and didn’t charge my mate a penny!
As always Glen has offered some good sound counsel and I hope other will learn from what he has shown!!
Thanks Glen! :tu
Glen, in your first post you said Rule #2 is making sure you have good steel to hold an edge before you go headlong into the resto.. What's Rule #1 ?
Excellent! Today at work was wondering if anyone did build along step by step type stuff and here you are! Thanks Glen.
