He’s got it nailed when it comes to GD 66’s and his methods reading his posts .
He’s given me pointers on them as well. So Helpful. Very instructive.
I’ve ground a lot of GDs but I can’t master his technique of grinding under water as I can’t hold my breath very long.
I’ll wait for a tutorial.
Oh I’m learning . I hope . Exhausted reading that lengthy post about the real work of polishing a spine.Well, are we really living if we’re not learning?
Sounds like it's coming along nicely! Can't wait to see the CA treatment on the scales.Blade profile finished and part way through the blade polishing. Lead wedge is made and pinning materials are on hand.
Today I finished treating the new scales with CA. This is my first attempt at CA treating of timber. Fourteen coats of CA, sanding with W&D between each coat. Started sanding with 600 then worked my way through and up to 2k grit on the final coat. Finished it with an Autosol polish. I probably over-did it but I am learning - and learnt a lot.
The CA treatment is not perfect but I'm pleased with my first result.
Next will be to finish the blade polishing, put it all together, finish the detailing and hone it up for its shave test.
Love the Spanish point. Pitty the toe is muted (just a personal preference).So...first night with no Mrs and no kid...I got busy!
