Default first razor resto update #1

Hey Everybody,
I just got done w/ sanding (started at 60 to 100 to 120 to 220 to 320 to 400 to 600) and removing scales. I must say that for what I thought was a decent razor, this turned out to be more than that. I probably could have gone w/ more lower grit to get ALL the spots out but my neck was getting sore and I was anxious to get 'er on the way to polishing. BTW, anybody got any tricks for getting into the stabilizers?? Tough to do w/ 60 grit (paper doesn;t bend well and hard to reach). I wonder what ole grandpa would think about his razor now.

Critiques welcome!

The only "Trick" I use for stubboun shoulder stains is before I even start sanding I use a dremel with those puffy wheels to clean them up....
Be very careful using a dremel anywhere near the edge though!!!!!!!!!
