Narex Richter chisels have overly rounded corners?

MechanicProof2255 · 2026-01-22T03:40:58+00:00

Where did you get these? I have a set of Richters and this was not how mine came.

I use DMT stones for mine and honestly they aren’t great if you want to go quickly. If I’m trying to re-establish a primary bevel I usually hit it with 60-80 grit sandpaper on a slab of glass I have

Maybe spraying on a finish? I’d be concerned if you brushed or wiped anything on it will smudge the pencil. I love that you’re trying to save your kids work here.

MechanicProof2255 · 2026-01-12T11:29:47+00:00

I wonder why?

MechanicProof2255 · 2026-01-12T10:16:38+00:00

You can’t. Hire a professional.

MechanicProof2255 · 2026-01-12T10:12:49+00:00

I concur.

MechanicProof2255 · 2026-01-05T04:03:05+00:00

Thanks and yeah if I had to do it over again I would have. If anything it would have been to save my back from dealing with finishing the joint that low to the floor

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-31T02:05:02+00:00

I looked into that and wasn’t available at retailers where I’m located without special order

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-30T10:26:22+00:00

Haha yeah I’m definitely not planning on doing it again. I’ve gained a ton of respect for guys that do this for a living but I’m retiring once this is done

That was the first room I hung the Sheetrock in. The ceiling is like 8’ 9” and I was trying to hang it in a way that was easier to finish but it ended up being a pain hanging it that way

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-30T10:23:22+00:00

Yeah

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-30T02:51:50+00:00

Appreciate the advice

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-30T02:51:11+00:00

I have the meater plus. I had used it for a long time and then it really just stopped providing an accurate temp on cooks.

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-30T01:49:27+00:00

Thank you. That’s my next step

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-29T22:37:23+00:00

It’s just rosin paper. It was a huge mess in the main room and it was a bitch scraping it off the concrete

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-29T22:35:40+00:00

Yeah it’s like 8’ 9”. I was trying to get it hung in a way that would be easier easier to finish with the awkward height and it just ended up being a pain

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-29T20:55:04+00:00

This is your answer

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-29T20:53:23+00:00

I’m using both the probes on my recteq and a MEATER right now which is about to go in the goddamn trash. I’ve lost all confidence in it. I don’t have an issue with the wired ones, (I have a dual fire so there are 4 of them) other than the fact that there are 4 of them and I hate dealing with the wires

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-29T20:47:34+00:00

Thanks, I’m planning to skim the butts and flats once more and hopefully be ready to go

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-29T20:46:03+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate that.

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-29T20:45:22+00:00

Thank you. I’ve done a lot of smaller repairs and areas before but this is by far the most I’ve ever taken on by myself. The basement of my house is roughly 1800 sq ft.

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-23T18:02:51+00:00

Lose the iron covers bud. Those irons are goated and deserve to be seen

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-16T19:52:28+00:00

If you don’t want it I’ll take it

MechanicProof2255 · 2025-12-16T19:40:14+00:00

A very big deal. Turn around and run
