Thanked: 10This is a great method. However I experienced difficulty sourcing a metal or plastic rod of appropriate diameter. I had the idea of using a wooden rod so after a little searching around I found a suitable diameter of cane (which has a smooth surface) from the greenhouse and I cut the cane down to a suitable length. This works very well with the advantage that the inner sticky tape (with its smooth side in) can be secured with a pin so that its tendency to slip along the rod can be overcome when winding the tape down the rod.

How did you deal with sanding both sides of the blade with a non reversible dremel?
Didnt you run into the problem of sanding toward the blade end?
