Thank you for the kind words. Unfortunately I really have no desire to be in business for myself.
I love bringing my ideas to fruition. That is my enjoyment.

Thank you. Several months ago somebody contacted me about making a cap for their FAMEX razor. They sent the broken cap and the base. When I had it, I measured everything and made my own FAMEX. The geometry was really nice on mine. So I incorporated the same geometry for my Adjustable.Tom, I admire your ability to make a razor like that. The tip looks a lot like a Mergress but the head is unique. Nice work.

It's been a while since a pulled these out of the drawer, they look to be in better shape than i remember. The top one looks like the plating is mostly intact, and the other one looks to have lost all plating. Any tips on polishing or removing scratches would be appreciated.

Gorgeous!Here is a Brass razor I literally just finished today for my son’s 25th Birthday. It weighs a whopping 163g. Is fully adjustable. I had the box made by a dear friend that makes brushes.
I hope he likes it.

Thank you. It was fun making it. It is out on a little tour getting feedback right now.Gorgeous!
I agree. Tech on the right has an ATT copper handle.If the plating is (mostly) gone why not polish it to a great shine.

I have polished most of my Matte or Satin razors and did not polish under the cap or the top of the base. However, after a little research, I do not believe that you can have any noticeable impact on the gap by polishing the entire razor. I think that replating probably has a greater propensity to impact the gap. Just an opinion nothing scientific on my view.I have thought of polishing the handle and the top of the cap of my Christopher Bradley. And only then letting its patina develop, instead of leaving the matte finish to patina.
No way I’m polishing the surfaces that clamp the blade.
I did polish the safety bar but not the clamping surfaces. If anything it shaves smoother after polishing.I have thought of polishing the handle and the top of the cap of my Christopher Bradley. And only then letting its patina develop, instead of leaving the matte finish to patina.
