    Hey don't let the cat out of the bag Roy! haven't much time but will do a proper thread about that razor in particular. If you knew how much time I spent to pin this razor you would think I'm completely nuts!

    Tasty looking crab there, RezDog. Reminds me of my time in Houston crabbing off of the dock in Galveston while pops was taking out charters to fund his ever-present gas engine troubles. I learned at a very young age that boats are serious money pits if you aren't careful.

    Notice I just said 'project' and that's all I've got to say about that:

    However I stand by how nice your work is/regardless of how long it took to pin

    Yeah! A treasure chest guarded by a cutlass. A skeleton arm holding onto the hilt........

    OR some jellyfish...Man-O-wars. Between the two peaks. One larger and up higher(closer) and two smaller and lower, respectively (out in the distance).

    Am thinking of working on dimensions.... Yeah!

    How did you make those pins look so nice?
    I'm still working on my pinning. I always seem to have a sharp point or edge somewhere. Its annoying as hell.

    A little omni-directional and gentle buffing is what I like to do.
    Smooths everything, esp sharp edges.

    The washer are nicely beveled on top, as you pin the razor the cavity fills in, thereafter a small file to clean up followed by some very fine sandpaper and lastly some MAAS to shine the pins. Time consuming but the outcome is nice.

    Martian very very nice job on that razor. The pinning is just wow

    Shaun, that scale is just amazing. Great job brother.
    I see you've been given some great ideas for the other side already. I know whichever way you go it will be great.
