Restoring: not for me anymore!
:rant:Hi guys, i just need to cool down for a minute. I've bought 2 razors of a Dutch second hand-stuff website. Both razors were in pretty good condition, but i wanted a mirrorlike finish, like you see here all the time!
The first razor went rather well, but i had pressed too much on the dremel-like instrument that the blade had a blue colour, due to the heat. Also, last but not least a chip came off the razor, which made it useless. Threw that one away.
Today i got another one in, that had some pitting, but no rust. I had really a good feeling about this one, because now i had bought those dremel-bits, so i was prepared. I started carefully and with little pressure and it cleaned up fast, but then disaster struck: a crack from the edge to the spine.
That's it: no more restoring for this guy! I've had it. Lost about 90 dollars in the process. GRRRRRRRRRRR
Just needed to get if off my chest, sorry for that! :(
