Thread: What should I do with this razor?

When I first started with razors I wanted to get a dremel with all the bits and pieces. But then when I went back to Australia for a holiday I borrowed my friend's dremel for a test drive. That was when I realised that I am the sort of person who should be kept away from power tools. The exact moment I made this discovery was when I had a grinding bit in my fingers, locked into the chuck, and then turned it on (only for the briefest second). When restorers give advice like make sure the razor is secured before you start using a dremel, they are really talking to me.

I just looked up bench hook on google. That is kinda the idea I had behind using the D clamp. It worked really well, but vice would be even better.

Here is the finished product. All I have to do is hone it up and give it a shave.

Just in case anyone is interested, this razor is now up for sale in the classifieds.

Very nice I think that you are the most patient person that I have heard of. I chopped the end of my razor off with a Dremel and it took a long time so that must have taken nearly forever. Nice work with the scales as well.
