    Im Calling it "the ex-wife"

    Im Calling it "the ex-wife"

    Looks pretty and slowly takes you apart :) Possibly the 1st of many, thanks goes to "Custard" and Paul Sellers :D Lots of 120 grit, lots more 240 grit and a complete grinding of the iron. all is now ship shape, but i think it needs a bit more of an edge.
