So i picked up this 1920 tuckaway a few months ago and although it shaves fine, the tubing is loose due to the standard pressure cracks these things develop. I’m planning on having the razor replated so i’m wondering if i should repair the cracks using this method:
Tutorial: Repair cracked handles/shafts in Gillette Old Types etc.
OR should i just send it off for replating? The cracks are not substantial so i was thinking the replate may just seal them? Thoughts? Opinions? All input is appreciated!
