Straight up and down with the sandpaper, no circles or polishing till the end IIRC....

I agree Phrank, no need for power tools for that one.
She's lookin good already.[emoji106]

You guys have done some great work here. I step away for a few days and there's a hundred posts to read!

Yesterday I did something I hadn't done in a few years. Got my hands on another Kenwa, western grind this time. Pitted heavily at a few places, I said, screw it, let's try this, see what happens... and so I reached for 80 grit. Didn't take a pic before, I only remembered to take a shot at around 320.



Right now, it looks like this. Admittedly I killed the grind line a bit, and then tried to restore it. That was a fun exercise, but one I didn't really pursue, worrying I might do more harm than good. Perhaps that's somewhat visible on the second picture.

Buffing out a 33' cruiser.

Little carving play.



One done, second to go. :-)

Awesome.!!!!

Those are gonna be super nice when finished.

Fyi the current bone scales I'm working on are .093 with a minimal sanding to do.

Nice work Thaeris. That is quite the ink selection you have going on.

Srdjan we all blend a few lines here and there. We try not to but it happens. The blade is looking good though.

MGMike that boat looks like a big job, if it has been well kept it won't be that big of a deal.

Both arms are shot, tendonitis flaring in right elbow. [emoji57]

Rainy day (as usual...thanks God for being stubborn and not give course to my missus' wish to move to Highlands) so a bit of further progression here
