    I know I'm late checking back. Let us know how it goes. Fortunately you can always go back to it. I think we learn more from mistakes than successes. God only knows I screw up enough for ALL of us.

    Hi Paul, No worries, I unpinned it, made a new wedge, pinned it up again and the blade is now centered. I did cheat a bit and put double washers on the right side after flattening them out.
    Once I've honed and shaved with it I will post some pics.
    Cheers

    I don't think it was cheating if it fixed the problem without looking cockamamie or ghetto.

    Well, here is the finished version. I'm embarrassed at the lousy finish on the scales but it shaves magnificently!

    I like it. If it looks too pristine then I'm always hesitant to use it. What good is a toy that never comes out of the box? It's a shaver not a display model.
