    SO, how long digit take to cut that notch with thread and abrasive.

    Interesting that this showed up at this time. Just this morning I was looking for the sewing awl I have from my grandfather

    This process took me about an hour. The main thing is not to skimp on the polishing paste. The thread sometimes breaks and frays. used three threads
