6ft Straight Edge Hand Scraping

Bringing back an old 6ft Camel Back Straight Edge into working condition by hand in a small workshop without a huge granite plate or 6ft master. Making use of all we have learned over the past months and the Straight Edges resurfaced to date.

For those new to scraping, check out the threads on the forum of Practical Machinist on machine refurbishment & scraping - there is a huge amount of information, knowledge and experience to be gleaned. Search YouTube for Hand Scraping, Bearing Scraping and similar - there is an ever growing list of videos - some better than others.
I am self taught, mainly from doing, advise of others and from watching YT videos - I have poor practices and am addressing these slowly, so be careful what you take on board and what you leave behind !
I hope that you gain something from watching, maybe others will produce better videos on the subject as a result of the issues I show in this and that truly would be a good thing to help get the knowledge out into the public arena where it can be used.
Thanks for watching, do take a look through my earlier videos - the early scraping videos contain a lot of information I picked up and they point to the sources, these later ones tend to take for granted that you have watched these (my bad !).
All the best
