Thread: What are you working on?

Mike, it's kind of like this but the ones I use get chucked into my cordless drill. I don't see why this couldn't be used either on the disk grinder like here or on a bench grinder.

have you actually used those things on razors?

I'm wondering the same. I've seen those before, never thought to..
They work?

They work great, for removing alot of steel quikly.

So I got some horn that is refusing to Cooperate.



Lets see how a night in the freezer works. 2 times heated with hairdryer clamped and frozen.
1 time boiled clamped and frozen.
Now boiled and twisted and over corrected freeze again.

I see. So perhaps even with a very gentle touch they may take too much off?
One thing I'm curious about is if it will gouge out pits the way the greaseless will do...? Is the belt grinder the only good way to deal with serious pitting?

Ducks without beaks, One more down.

That warping is the only reason I've been a bit apprehensive about creating horn scales.
Good luck! The others look great!

I don't know about those particular ones, I use the smaller version that fits in a drill. Most hand drills are variable speed and can be sped up or slowed down depending on the need of the moment. I have had no problems doing it this way. I use finer grit paper by hand as I progress to take out the deeper lower grit marks.

Lads just a note on the flap disks, we use these a lot at work for finishing steel jobs, No way in hell would I go anywhere near a razor with a flap disk on a grinder These are usually 60 - 180 grit with high a speed grinder = no more razor real quickThe burr type flap discs used in a drill or rotary burr are also fairly aggressive DIY to low grit ratings 60-180 usually also I very worn out one on low speed in a drill may work but would be only on a heavy blade with heavy damage Also both are flexible when used and don't hold a perminent shape Hope this helps Cheers D
