    Default Scale warping

    Hey guys.

    I'm about to start a restoration on an old Tiger razor that I purchased off of eBay and one scale is warped. I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience unwarping/reshaping the original scale without having to make a new one.

    Cheers

    Yes there are several thread mostly under the heading of "Fixing Warped Scales"

    To do that right because of the center post you will need to take it all the way apart, I would be ready to make new scales or find some old scales that fit.. The more work you do to scales the more chances of the cracking or you might even find some celluloid rot along the path ...

    There really is no way of knowing first, unless the issues are obvious..

    Good Luck slow and steady wins the race with a restore
