I didn't 'Bid' on anything!

Hey guys, looks like I'm around 10 or more pages behind so I will need to go back through them. I've been dealin' with life. I was also feeling a little under the weather a few days & for a few days I just didn't feel like doing a damn thing.
I got back on the Felt Pad razor that had the broken scale. When I pinned the wedge on, it was awkward because of the angle but I got it. Then one of the scales was a tiny bit longer on the wedge end & they are beveled there so I shortened it with a file & accidentally got the angle more on one side than the other so I had to make the opposite side match. Once I did that, I sanded the scales starting around 800 grit up to 3k & hand polished them. Then I cleaned the blade up with some 1k, 1.2k, 1.5k, 2k, 2.5k & 3k sandpaper, hand polished & finished pinning it together. It centers nicely. Now I need to hone 'er up. Since the razor says Twinplex on it, I showed my other Twinplex product.

Nice work, Engine! Hope you are feeling better. Don't worry, I feel like I'm 10 pages behind and all I did was leave the room for a minute!

Yeah, I'm feeling better, thank you.
I also had to rebuild a scroll saw. I got one delivered to my door & FEDEX dropped it on the table end & broke the main base where it mounts to. I got another base for it for free & fixed it. UPS, USPS & FEDEX don't give a damn about anything anymore.

That's what I'm thinking for the magazine rack, but vertical, and two levels. Should hold about 30 from my estimation.

Great job Steve.
As good as new, maybe better.

I live in Enid, Oklahoma. I have stated that in quite a few of my posts. I don't care to put it in my profile for
various personal reasons. Ok, please, find the tools of my torment that I so desperately seek. As for my use
of "sir", I try to be respectful of all humans I meet. That's what my Grandmother taught me and I'm not about
to change.

Nice work, Engine.

The twinplex/felt pad looks super clean and like brand new. That high pin in the middle still tweaks my eyes a little! Cool looking razor
