In the mail and coming to a shave den near me soon.

That dubl duck you generously sent me is my number#1 razor.

At last I have one that people actually know lol.

It's in almost NOS condition and you gave it an atom splitting edge.

I still...

I'll swap you a dubl duck Satinedge for it Paul :rofl2:

Not in the mail but it it was really unexpected surprise when it arrived.

A parcel from PaulFLUS just because.

I had absolutely no idea it was a real shock.

Some wood that could be a...

In the mail - time to get in the spirit

These will be the first scales that aren't made from a paint stick, so fingers crossed eh.

Any advice is welcome, cos its success or bust now I'm scaling for real, they cost a bit more than the...

Water buffalo Horn 6x2x1/8

Got 4 blanks coming.

Gonna use 2 for a razor now and keep the other 2 flat for another time, want to start building a bit of a stash

In the UK we used Swarfega.
Green gel stuff that removes oil if your working on an engine.

You put it on dry hands and rub it in well then rinse it off

I haven't tried an open comb Safety Razor so this will be interesting, I'm told I might find it quite aggressive. I'm excited to try it out.
It's cheap enough that I won't be crying into my beer...

Never a truer word spoken.

I've just realized i'm gonna need some tru-oil :banghead:

I was about to order some Blue Magic Metal Polish, it's quite expensive here in Canada ($28 Can). Glen swears by it so I need it, but wouldn't you know it. I was looking in my workshop and I found...

Well, a lot of you guys including Outback, celticcrusader and gssixgun said the Chosera was The bevel setter to have.

I will only ever need one so what can I say, I caved - arriving tomorrow.
...

Luckily I have an old corded electric drill with a stay on and a variable speed function.

Straight pin holes for me please.

Coming tomorrow.

I've sent you a PM Paul :D

If you do, I call first dibs

I'd love to see it when you've finished with it Paul.

I didn't even know Beau Dallah was in Australia. I thought you were somewhere in the deep south, although Oz might've been a clue if i was concentrating.

I've got a friend called Richard in...

Can you explain please Shawn (my apologies Shaun)?

Whats a co pass and how do dividers help, I could get a geometry set from the dollar store with dividers in it.

That is great advice David and I will definately use it when I make my own scales but these are already joined at the wedge so just need drilling and pinning at the hinge, it probably won't be...

Ordered just now from Maggards (they have 10% of everything today):)

Now I have to figure out where to put the hinge hole and make it straight with only a full size battery...

I'm sure you have already looked into this method, but just in case.

I also find that coticule edges need a lot of strop after honing, like 60 cotton and 100 leather, they go from ok to sharp on...

That's looks excellent Paul.

You're gonna enjoy that Pike Norton #1 washita, really versatile and even sets a good bevel. Mine does.
