Got the first restoration under my belt!
Hey Workshop! So I finally finished my restoration. If you've seen my other posts, I broke the original blade for the scales I was making. I had a Boker with broken scales so I merged the two. With a few changes to the scales, I was able to make the new blade fit!
Firsts:
First Restoration
First Pinning
First Scale Making
First Wedging
Please critique the razor! I know the blade has patina, but that was my choice to leave on there. I like the old vibe it gives. But everything else is on the table! Let me know what I should do or not do for project #2!

Thanks! I messed up there. I drilled the hole too far toward the middle of the scales so when I tightened the screws during mock up, it didn't have the leverage to "wedge" the wood.
I'm not sure if that makes sense. Basically I need to drill the hole in the center if the wedge, not the front.
I'll add it to my list of changes! :)

The blade is set as are the scales,it will function fine,next one play with.
My apologies for not being clear, I meant I'll play with it on the next one!
