Hi everyone. New to razor restoration. Did a few that turned out great. However, I broke three sets of scales trying to re-install the pins. When I try to tap the pins to secure, they are bending and breaking the scales. Any ideas why? is a video available. Perhaps I can see what I may be doing wrong. As always, Thank you.
More than likely your pins are too long, when you initially clip them. Get some flush cut wire cutters, then file the pin down, almost flush with the collars. Then lightly tap around the edges of the pins, checking fit, often.
