Having seen some of the scare stories of razor restoration (and I thought shaving with the things was bad enough!), I like the idea of making one of those L-shaped sanding jigs to hold the blade still whilst I work on it.

1. The design that uses strong magnets seems a great idea -- stops the blade moving full-stop, thereby drastically reducing the chance of it biting me. But how do you get it off again, safely and without scratching it?

2. For hollow-ground razors, do you mould the support beneath the blade to fill the hollow? I've not seen it on the pictures I've seen.
