These specialists are hard toured “most neigh- borhoods, ringing a bell: to let everyone know they . were there. But-that was long ago, Now you have - to know ‘how to sharpen - the scissors yourself. You will need an oilstone and _ light machine oil. It will take: about 10 minutes. 1. Anchor the oilstone on a flat surface. If the stone is new, saturate it ‘with light machine or household oil, then wipe it elean. If it was previously saturated, apply a few drops of fresh oil before using the stone. 2. Look at the scissors before starting. You'll see that the aring edge is ; ground at right angles to the inner face of the blade. Place this edge flat against the surface of the oilstone. The inner face of the blade will now be vertical. 3. Keep the blade vertical as you work, so as not to change the angle of the edge. 4. Use the fine side of the oilstone and make four or five zigzag strokes across the stone. At the Same time, move the blade along the oilstone.from one end to the other. 5S. Repeat the process for the second blade. One pass the length of the oilstone for each blade should be sufficient. LEN RHODES Please call me if | may be of any assistance to you.
