That must be a tedious chore with just a 800 grit waterstone. It's coming along well though Is now too late to let you know I have some coarser diamond stones you can borrow?
Nice job How long did it take you?
Looks good so far. I hesitate to say you can use sand paper on a very flat surface.
You know you are always welcome to use my garage You can lock the kid in my back garden with an axe and some 4x2 Good luck with the work Mate
That edge is coming along beautifully, Smashie
At times like these I bet it would help to have a grinder
