Holding a razor for restoration...
I have just started to restore several razors and and have had difficulty holding them while sanding and polishing the blades. I have nicked myself several times over the last couple of week while hand sanding especially. What methods do you guys use to hold complete razors and just the blades when restoring them?
Thanks Much,
PKK

Here's what I did this afternoon.....
I machined a piece of black delrin to hold my razors in various positions.
It has a slot to hold the razor vertical to work on the spine.
It has a stepped groove with three neodymium magnets to work on either side of the razor. I realize that the magnets will have to be covered with tape to prevent metal chips from sticking to them permanently.
It has a "ledge" with no magnets and a dovetail to cover the edge also.
I will give it a try tonight to see if it works well or not.
Thanks a lot for your help guys.
