1st Restoration Attempt-Frederick Reynolds
I got the itch. Then I got Bill's CD. It turned out better than I was expecting, but not quite as good as I would like. The blade isn't quite polished enough, I may end up putting a satin finish on it. The coolest part is I almost put the pivot hole in the wrong spot. When the blade closes it is about 0.001" away from the wedge, completely by accident.
Frederick Reynolds blade with Cocobolo scales and a Cherry wedge.
Any thoughts?

Very nice job . Ijust might find the time to rehandle & restore some of my vintage wedges that would look better with some restoration to them,but first it looks though Bills DVD might be the next thing I buy .
Can anyone give me some advice on the correct way to make & polish bone for scales?.Paul
