Take Care,

Why sticky when it's in the wiki? :)
Glen - so you sharpen the blade AFTER rescaling, right? - nevermind, I just read your last post of the original tutorial where you say the finished razor is ready for the hones!
thanks for the tutorial and the info!
Nice work Glen. Thank you for the photo tutorial.
Thanks so much Glen!!! Super source of quality info as always.
great job Glen good looking razor!
Nice job Glen both on the razor and the tutorial. I've been having problems making the wedges and will try your process the next time around. I like the rubber cement also. I've been rough sanding the scales one at a time, putting a pivot hole in, then the wedge hole, then transfer the pivot hole and then the wedge hole. Your process is faster. Once the holes are in I use adjustable pins to hold the scales together and finish sand the contour of the scales. Then take apart and sand a curve on the scales by hand with the wedge in place and your mock blade. Your tips have helped me a lot.
Dang!
This is a dumb Q even by my standards :)
You pry the two handle scales apart after you have sanded to, PRETTY MUCH, a final shape?
The rubber cement makes it easy to pry apart?
Do you use acetone or scraping to remove the glue on blade side?
Thanks
Tom
Tom I actually just push two different directions with my fingers basically they will slide apart, after that a little rubbing with yer thumb gets rid of 99% of the residue and a quick run on the sanding belt brings the scales to exactly where I want them to be...
Please post such pictorial post about blade restoration...
