I have finished this Bigelow and Dowse striper. (yay!)

Attachment 231191 Attachment 231192

Rides a bit high in front as I thinned out the wedge a LOT to keep it in the scales. Don't bother me a bit!

Attachment 231193

Best part is, it pinned up easy and centered perfectly with no trickery! I think that is a testimonial to the stability of this type of old celluloid. No shrinkage, nor warpage in any of them.

Attachment 231195

Just to add; Bigelow and Dowse seems to have been a big deal back in the day!

Har! I know that, Steve! TBH, I tracked down SenorSteve and we made a deal on that last one you showed.
It put me where I needed to be! Thanks!

It is cool to put all these fine blades to use which were sitting around. All but a few came with bad scales, a few in slick black.
Most are fairly obscure, but all are quality and with little use on them. Should be a great set of users!
Now, to the box! :)

:y:y:y:y:yFinally got another one done. This one is my "sublime" boker. Scales needed cleaning and the blade needed some TLC. It should hone up nicely. This is my first boker.Attachment 231200:y

You would have liked to see the two sets I did simultaneously.
Think I drug that out for a year or so.

Found it! Follow the links back at the beginning of each thread. Then go forward from the beginning. :D
