Picture of your fat boy with one setting and nine setting

Could someone help me seen about my fatboy by taking a picture of your fatboy set on 1 and then another picture with it set on 9? I would like to see the blade angle. I am new at wet shaving and recently purchased a fat boy at an antique shop, cleaned it up. The adjustment knob works fine. Thanks and it's great to be part of B&B!
 
get a feeler gauge at your local auto shop or Harbor Freight. They're less than $10. If you own adjustable razors they are a must. I have bought more than hadnful of adjustables and only one had the proper gap (which determines the angle you're talking about). A picture probably won't help much. 1 - because only the best photogs will be able to get it clear. 2 - I'm not sure you'll be able to tell how closely it resembles yours.

Check the Wiki and you'll find the gap chart for Gillettes and you can use it with the feeler gauge to check your fatboy.
 
The silver razors in the below pictures are the fatboy, on setting one and setting 9. Sorry, no blade in it.
