Tonights Shave first go. Fully closed gap One turn open. This is the setting I used. I am still waiting for the correct spring. I found one that is a bit too long and strong. But it works. The shave was right where I had hoped it would be. This will be setting 6. One full turn opened. I tried it opened more. It was ok. I did my first 2 passes on 6 days growth. Great reduction. The third pass I dialed it all the way down. It gave a really nice finish pass. I ended up with a DFS. The shave was smooth with no feedback from my Aluminum block. Next up is fully disassemble and sand and polish. I plan on gun kote black and bare brass on the finish. I will lacquer the brass. I still need to engrave numbers.

Tom, very cool! How was it going around the nose? The finish you’re planning should look very nice. I can’t wait to see the finished product.
Nose is not bad about average as DE’s go. With any motivation I will coat it this weekend. I have another razor I have to coat for a member. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
Wow. That is a beast. The combs from the side look kind of like a twisted up handlebar mustache. Don't know if you could work with that for a name or not.
