Nice job.  Happy
That must've taken a while.
Did you use a muslin buffing wheel for some of the final polishing (like the top of the cap), or was it all done with the Dremel?

I was using dremmel tool and quality polishing wheels not cheap ones..

It takes me half a day for razor to be completed too cap takes most of time 1 1/2” or more to be perfect..

I do extra steps in polishing Karve Razor like Jewel polish “Perfection”

Thank you 

I use to polish high end watches so I have my technique and skills

It takes me day or two to complete polish job on karve 

Top cap takes 1 1/2” hour to be completed take most of time and very tricky to bring up that perfection

I used high quality final buffing wheel to give that 
Mirror look polish and toughest part top cap takes time to be perfect as I said 1 1/2 hour to be polished without any imperfection

I use to polish high end watches so it’s my speciality and have techniques the way I do

Lots of patience

And yes I did use muslin buffing wheel as I have many others too as well..

Mother’s California for Alloy wheel polish work excellent 
And German Autosol for finish product

The underside of the top cap is done beautifully. The underside of the base plate looks a bit overdone; it could just be the angle, but the circular lines look like they're worn down. In any case, this is the best self-polished Karve SS that I've seen yet.
