End cap issue - SuperSpeed/Slim/FB
Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2017 9:11 pm
I have an old Slim that doesn't work right, and I've got two pretty nice razors that are missing end caps. Out of curiosity I decided I want to learn how to remove and replace the end caps on these TTO razors. I have learned they carry identical end caps that are soldered in place at the factory. So far I was able to remove one end cap that had a few marks on it like it had been struck with a tiny hammer for some crazy reason. This means I've removed a defective end cap and now I need to figure out how to remove a pristine end cap and then re-install it on a different razor that needs one, without damaging the new end cap in the process. Does anyone here have any suggestions? Is it a DYI project? If not, then where would I take it locally for the process? I am thinking a jeweler with access to all the tools and expertise might give it a try.
