Jerry that 9million coats of CA came out great. It looks like scales under glass. It turned out great.
It does look like they are under glass. Thanks. As far as who cut out the truck pic. ME and my pocket knife! OK, Maybe not. @oldblades get that honor. They were a gift. He did it for me when I bought some old blades from him. Thru them in the box as a bonus. Very nice of him!
As soon as I finish getting this CB radio fixed and off my bench I'll get started on the honing of this one and hope to shave with it tonight. Crossing my fingers that this is a good honing day for me as its hit and miss with my honing skills so far. Something else I have to work on.
Much better pics this time. Plus its pinned.

Guess I need to build me one of those light boxes for pics soon. Something else I'll have to research to find out how to make.
Thanks for the props gentlemen.

Sectioned 2 of the smaller burls I found last week. Looks very promising, although there also seems to be some worm damage at the tops of the outer layer. It's not too deep and I'm hoping I can turn past most of it. Cut a 3" square blank for a 12" Pepper mill, a 2" x 12", and some smaller blanks as well. Should be some excellent caps as well.
Some very nice coloring, and excellent burl figuring. Some grey/blues, reds, peach, and also some amazing spalting patterns.

Looking good gasman! I'm sure you'll get her honed up nice. Just remember that setting that bevel is everything! When you THINK it's set, keep on going. When you KNOW it's set, give it 30 or 40 more light X strokes and move to the next stone. It's all downhill after that.
That's a cool looking personalised razor Jerry. Turned out sweet for sure and a lifetime keepsake.
Those slabs are lookin pretty tasty as well Andrew. Hope you wore your good mask for cutting those bad boys down to size!
