Thread: What would you like to see or learn at razorcon?

I am working out the lecture /demo schedule right now so I am asking what would you guys like to learn more about or like to see demonstrated this year. Keep in mind we will be setting up a small outdoor shop to do some hands on stuff this year. So we should be able to handle most thing so let me know what you want to learn!!!!!!

SOOOOO..... ? no thirst for knowledge?

It would be awesome to see someone grind a blank!

A grinding demo would be great. It would also be cool to see blades in various stages of completion

maybe some restoration stuff. Perhaps scale materials and how to work them. Products and techniques used to polish blades. I don't know maybe a start to finish kind of thing, like a guy thats just working on restoring a razor like you would see at a fair where the guy carves sculptures out of logs or a blacksmith building something. and of course stropping and honing instruction. Perhaps an antiques appraiser if that's acceptable. A swap meet area. Some of the "finer things in life". Vendors! just throwing things down there...ive never been to one but thats what i would like to see.

A live feed for those of us that can't make it with multiple cameramen?

Hey, you asked, Doc!

I cant be there, but if I could one thing I would LOVE to do is honing...honing..and more honing. Actually have some one on one time with a honemeister. Do a sort of start to finish with a blade and eval of your work with them.

i would love to see lynn join via internet and demonstrate that coup de maitre thingy....

I'm sure someone's already planning on doing it but it hasn't been mentioned...pinning. Everything from drilling the holes to the actual pinning. Maybe some customization tutorials like spine work, reshaping, etc.
