Thanks for the advice BB. I did what i did in a vice with wooden blocks knowing that it is a delicate process as read in other restorations. One thing i wasnt aware and i gues its likely too late, but the painting of where the blade attaches is already done. I did wonder whether i shouldnt have, however, it was painted previously so i assumed it would be ok?
Will any harm be done, or should i look to sand it back?
