    Default Some Can and Some Try......

    My hat goes off to all the men & women who can refurbish razors and share their work with the rest of us.
    Today, I tried to cut my first set of scales.
    Before you shake your head; I did not rush this experience. I have spent the last 4 months learning , by reading and watching all the videos I could find. I bought the tools (scroll saw, grinder/buffer, drill press, sander) by recommendations on this forum. I cut a wedge, but it flew off the scroll saw( I live in a condo, off the balcony it went. I think it is too small to injury someone if it hit them on the head. It is somewhere lost in the yard.).
    I know that it looks like I used a machete, but it took 45 minutes to cut it out. I have all my fingers and did not break a blade.
    Tomorrow it is on to the sander.
