[Newbie] My First Attempt At Scraping

have you used it to transfer blue?
think of a ground surface, with no indicator movement, it does not transfer blue hardly at all, not reliably. ive never pull scraped to the finish you got, i just wanted to try it out, and soon found (even tho i was told) how much slower it was than push scraping
 
I used it as a master for the cross slide dovetails. and a few other things. Got inconsistent readings unless the blue was super thin.
Haven't used the 60deg straight edge for some time. Will probably have to scrape it again before next use and will finish the surface with the push scraper.
I found that the push scraper is the best tool until the surface is within about 2 tenths or less. Then the pull scraper would work faster to scape it flat.
 
Yeah and they are super expensive and don't need to be scraped....but still cool site to check out
