    Open the razor and look down from the top at where the arm is attached to the underneath part of the blade holder. The arm has a 180° bend to come back inside the razor. The arm is straight until it gets to where it holds the blade. You are correct. It turns 90° then folds back 180° onto itself, as shown in the photo. It then bends 90° at the end. You should make this piece from an "L"-shaped piece of metal and bend the long end of the "L" into an arc, as shown. Here's another set of photos showing the arm securing the blade in the razor 20190118_130019.png 20190118_130127.png

    Worked this up during lunch time. It is rough but it is a good start.

    Day 15.

    Two passes with the Ralf Aust, then finished with the ball-end tech. The left hand started running out of gas again just before the end. But a very good result for two passes, and no oopses. I think maybe tomorrow I'll try a t hird pass. Start one, at least.

    I just had to pull out the fat after jabbering about it yesterday.
