What a great trick / tip to have in the arsenal <br>
Thanks again for another great video

That's a fantastic tip Glen. So simple but makes so much sense. I have an old Frederick Reynolds in Sumac that I've tightened the pins on probably 5 times, and I just keep driving that washer deeper. I've stopped now because the washers are almost flush with the scales. I'll definitely be using this trick in the future.

A bit off topic, but do you have any pics of those sumac scales? The stuff is like a bloody weed around here but I've never thought of using it because it's so incredibly soft. But if it looks good, a healthy dose of CA should help with the strength issue.

I came up with it using Wood Hardener on the very first set of Black Palm I did, and switched to using the CA pretty quick after that..

I have posted about it a couple of times over the years but I had time to do a vid today

Could pass as Lignum Vitae or even Verawood. Opposite end of the Janka scale though. As you said, very soft. These would have been an excellent candidate for Glens trick here. I really should have stabilized them or done as Glen showed here. Could have saved me the headache of the floppy razor I have now.
